Which are the Java JAXP XPath implementations available? The default implementation, Xalan (shipped with the JVM), is very slow to evaluate XPath expressions, so, I'm looking for a faster implementation.
It seems an interesting project but it is not an implementation for the JAXP XPath API.

A:
I've tried Saxon as Steven D. Majewski has recommended and it worked very well. The performance is far superior to Xalan (the default implementation shipped with the JVM). Also, by doing some research I've found that the GNU JAXP project has a implementation for the JAXP XPath API, although I’ve not tested it.
