Ditto... What you might want to do is rather than have the pipeline occur
through Unix pipes send everything through the TCP/IP network.  Have the
Java XSLT processor stay up as a server and this will cut down on the
overhead of starting up the JVM.  Also this would give you scalability
advantages if you really need to move lots of data.
