Depends on how you invoke Xalan. Xalan-J can process from a DOMSource or
SAXSource, in which cases you're providing the parser and we just operate
on its output. Or we can process from a StreamSource, in which case we ask
JAXP for a SAX parser.

In general, we can access the source document most efficiently if we're
receiving it via SAX, since that lets us build our own custom data model
rather than having to adapt a DOM into our system.

(Reminder: Apache maintains its own mailing lists for Xalan users and
developers, which may be a better place to ask Xalan-specific questions ...
though I try to keep an eye on this list too as time permits.)
