this is done for caching purposes inside Cocoon2, see:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-cocoon2/src/java/org/apache/cocoon
/components/sax/XMLByteStreamCompiler.java

and

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-cocoon2/src/java/org/apache/cocoon
/components/sax/XMLByteStreamInterpreter.java

The ByteStreamCompiler and -Interpreter basically build a byte array
from 'recorded' SAX events, which can be replayed afterwards - see
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=97194999124269&w=2 for
a description of the format of that byte array.

Regards,
