I am building a small, extensible CMS-System for a bunch of simple 
websites (gallery, guestbook, articles... < 20MB) I have to create. To 
reuse the system i need some kind of template engine. At the moment I'm 
stuck between smarty and XSL.
I already worked with XSL, so the complexity isnt a factor. Im thinking 
about implementing the system with JSP, Servlets too, which would make 
XSL the better choice too.
What i need to know is the performance factor. Is far as i understood, 
XSL-Tranformations are running natively, but they have to be compiled 
everytime. Smarty-Templates are compiled and cached.
So, which one is faster?

	yours, Philipp
