using Xerces parser in JAXP

[chris]

Hi,
First, I was told that DOM and Crimson is a wrong match with bad performance.. right?
Currently, I'm using JAXP, and I know that by default it uses Crimson for a parser.
if DOM and Xerces performs better, I wonder how I can change default parser in JAXP from Crimson to Xerces.
thanx in advance..

Are you using j2sdk1.3 or j2sdk1.4.1_01 above?
