Speeding up Xerces SAXParser

[hitectahir]

Hi,

I have been using the SAXParser class of Xerces to parse some 40-60 K of XML on PersonalJava on an iPAQ. but it takes too much time (almost 30-40 seconds). Can anybody tell me if there are some options that can be selected in Xerces which can make the parsing process faster? For example, i initially used

SAXParser xml...
...
...
...
xml.setReaderFactory(new StreamingCharFactory);

but when i commented out the setReaderFactory method call, the speed increased by almost 33 %. Are there any other ways i can use to speed the thing up even more?

Tahir.
