Subject: Performance differences of Schema vs. DTD validation (question)

Hi all,

Are there any performance gains in using a Schema for validation over a DTD with
Xerces?  Is Xerces currently faster using one over the other?

Also, does anybody have any advice/tips for writing some sort of DTD caching
mechanism into Xerces?  This would be an immense benefit to the parser, IMO.  My
apologies if these questions have been asked/answered before on this list.  I'm
new to the community but plan on getting involved!

Thanks in advance,
Ryan
