I am part of a team that has been tasked to compare XSL trasformation engines for recommendation as a component for a large centralized data communication handler. We are going to use XML as the communication format, and plan to use XSL transformations to enable communication between different systems. We have been using the Xalan C++ libs, but have seen some severe performance penalties when XML sizes increase beyond a fairly small threshold (e.g. transformation takes ~50ms for 2K XML, ~2850ms for 113K XML). Our system will need to handle some large XML data transfers (on the order of several MB) and we were wondering if there isn't some way of getting the Xalan C++ libs to perform any faster. Right now, they are orders of magnitude slower than Java transformers, for most practical file sizes.
