> When a schema is compiled with -javasource=1.5, convenient list based accessors are generated as well as the array accessors. E.g. 
>     java.util.List<java.lang.String> getParamList()
> The implementation of the List is built upon java.lang.AbstractList. The AbstractList iterator's hasNext() method calls size(). For an XMLBean generated list, size() walks the store and so iteration scales quadratically.
> Here are some numbers showing the problem:
>  XMLBeans backed list of 1 strings: 0.013766 ms
>  XMLBeans backed list of 16 strings: 0.255458 ms
>  XMLBeans backed list of 256 strings: 1.612057 ms
>  XMLBeans backed list of 1024 strings: 25.458934 ms
>  XMLBeans backed list of 2048 strings: 123.393447 ms
>  XMLBeans backed list of 4096 strings: 505.594661 ms
>  plain list of 1 strings: 0.002304 ms
>  plain list of 16 strings: 0.007788 ms
>  plain list of 256 strings: 0.013384 ms 
>  plain list of 1024 strings: 0.052215 ms 
>  plain list of 2048 strings: 0.103550 ms
>  plain list of 4096 strings: 0.206648 ms
> I think the generated list should override iterator(), and return an Iterator that calculates the list size once per iteration.
