Re: DocBook roadmap?

No -- I'm sure it's slower, though whether the amount matters would depend
on how important speed is to you.

For my case, where we intend to process HOWTO documents with each build, the
speed isn't very important given that at most we'd be dealing with a few
dozen small documents.
