Optimizing Trax

All,

I am using Trax to transform my xml files, and am finding the performance very slow especially for large files. Are there any ways of optimizing the performance such as by pre-compiling the stylesheets? If so, how can this be done?
Here is the code that is slow:
xsl = "/stylesheet.xsl";
transformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new StreamSource(getClass().getResourceAsStream(xsl)));
transformer.transform(new DOMSource(document), new StreamResult(out));
