I have been using XIndice and Cocoon and find that it is powerful, but not 
really fast enough for what I need.
It may be fast enough if more caching were done but that is a bit broken at 
the moment because the
XML-DB protocol does not appear to have a means for saying when some XML 
was updated.

Anyway my test site was developed with Cocoon and XIndice (an XML Database) 
but it is cached
by downloading the whole site as html and uploading the static html :-)

http://news.diversebooks.com/draft/cocoon/reviews/titles/home.section.shtml

I basically need to upload small documents (reviews, news, articles) but 
associate with each of them
attributes such as author, title, publisher, and so on. With XIndice I can 
create Xpath  requests to
list all the titles for instance, or all the authors, and then use XSL to 
do the presentation.


I still don't understand how this can be done with Wyona because of the 
lack of documentation.
Does Wyona store everything in a file system? in MySQL? I just don't know.
