Just to make sure, by encoding do you mean output
(serialization), and by decoding reading (parsing)?
This seems interesting, if so: on output side stax
implementation should not have any effect. But it may
be that using a buffered writer might help.

There are far fewer configurable pieces on output side
though, so this seems peculiar. I have usually seen
performance ratios to be roughly similar for both
input and output.
