title: Performance considerations while using Xstream for XML conversions
body: <p>I am doing profiling on my Java application which consists mainly of web-services. The result shows that most of the time is spent in converting the XML's.</p>
  
  <p>I am currently using XStream ( Version 1.3.1 ) for the conversion. Will I get a better performance if I upgrade the version? Or is there anything else which I could use which can give me a better performance ( like JAXB) ?</p>
