I am trying to squeeze as much performance as i can from a custom HttpHandler that serves Xml content.

I' m wondering which is better for performance. Using the XmlTextWriter class or ad-hoc StringBuilder operations like:

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>");    
sb.AppendFormat("<element>{0}</element>", SOMEVALUE);

Does anyone have first hand experience?
