Wen,
I'm not sure it would be faster but...
If you don't care about nesting or other types of nodes, you can supply
the LinkTag as the only prototype for the node factory:
PrototypicalNodeFactory factory = new PrototypicalNodeFactory (new
LinkTag ());
Parser parser = new Parser ();
parser.setNodeFactory (factory);
NodeFilter filter = new NodeClassFilter (LinkTag.class);
for (20 documents)
{
parser.setURL (url);
NodeList links = parser.extractAllNodesThatMatch (filter);
for (int in = 0; in < links.size (); in++)
...
In this way there will be no attempt at nesting the tags, so it should
be faster.
You also don't need to allocate a parser and filter within your loop.
