RE: What is the fastest XSLT parser

But a job on this one, that took 30 hours took only 5 minutes in
Xalan/Xerces testXSLT command-line utility.

normally msxml is faster than the java ones.


But then I have a transform that takes several minutes with 
Xalan but only about a second with Saxon (very informal 
timings).  For sure you have to try specific problem cases 
with various processors to get the best speed.


Generally, MSXML gives pretty good performance. But there will always be
cases where one processor optimizes a particular construct and another
doesn't, and dramatic differences like these will generally apply only
to stylesheets that exhibit that particular feature.
