Description

Some file formats have a drastic reduction in performance when a non-null InfosetOutputter is used. For example, bmp is about 50 files/second output to null, but drops down to about 1 file/second when using any other infoset outputter. Similar poor performance is seen in jpeg, pcap. Common denominator might by hex binary data.

We need to investigate this poor performance and resolve if possible.
