XMLReaderFactory has been marked as deprecated and without additional configuration, and it's slower than SAXParserFactory. Previously `XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader()` is called upon every request. This is an anti-pattern as mentioned in [1] and it can be very slow since it loads the jar service file unless a parser has been pre-assigned [2] (e.g. by setting org.xml.sax.driver). SAXParserFactory uses a FactoryFinder [3] instead, which takes advantage of a thread-local cache provided by ServiceLoader. Developers can still pre-assign a factory by setting javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory to make it faster.
