I have been monitoring the performance issue for some time. Our figures
suggest XT still leads forJava with MSXML the overall leader. Obviously there
are no independent figures available for Datapower. I will post a link when
you can see some published results.

To comment on Bryan's question earlier in the thread,
Okay well I feel rather like a caveman presented with a starship, please
explain it's usefulness - without resorting to words or phrases like
"business logic", "drive revenues" etc. words like queuing, throughput
etc. would be good if combined with some numerical values; I've read the
datasheet can you clarify the point here
I work with a company called Sarvega (www.sarvega.com) who make an appliance
that overlaps somewhat in functionality with the Datapower offering. The main
applications I see for such products in no particular order are,
XSLT offload processing - Moving server-side transforms off the application
server to optimized hardware/software.
Security processing - Similar to XSLT offload, move processing of SSL, XMLSig
etc to optimized hardware/software.
Content routing - High speed classification and routing of XML content between
servers.
Universal translation - XSLT Transforms to either XML for further processing
or other output formats such as email or speech applications.
There is of course a great emphasis on reliable processing models, network
monitoring and such that you would expect from an appliance. The terms XML
firewall/router are sometimes used to describe these boxes but I am not sure
that really covers it all, but it might be handy as a one-liner.

you think they should use?
does anyone know if there is more recent or relevent work to the XSLTMark
