This could very well be the source of a major slow-down. Doesn't 
lexical_cast use string streams to do the conversion? It seems to me 
that you're comparing apples to oranges.

Also, the warning you saw came from the user-created semantic action, 
not from xpressive.

Robert, can you please post your complete code so that we can actually 
have meaningful numbers to look at? Thanks.
