XPath Performance Followup
Shirasu has extended my XPath benchmarking work to include testing across object models.
His observations:
Traversal of Jaxen is a bit slower than others. Performance of JXPath does not depend on object models generally. JXPath uses the original traversal mechanism (i.e. NodePointers), and this mesurement suggests that it does not use object model explicitly. Jaxen and Saxon in DOM is a bit slower than ones in JDOM and XOM. The following-sibling traversal of Saxon in DOM is a bit slow, but good in JDOM and XOM
