 Yes, but of course not us much as using a schema-based approach. Our
preliminary numbers show a performance improvement similar to other
related technologies such as Dennis S. XBIS --BTW, even though type
information for numeric data cannot be used, qnames and repeated content
can still be encoded as small ints without altering the infoset.
