It took more than 5 minutes to start Stylus Studio at all. My hole PC became awful slow when Stylus Studio was up. The system requirements don't mention any values for minimum memory size or similar things, so this behavior is not acceptable.

Christian,

What kind configuration you have ?

CPU
Memory
OS

If you had opened a document from a network source you could experience
a slow starup because stylus is trying to re-open the file from a source
that could be unavailable

It would help knowing what kind of Pentium; we usually run Stylus Studio on
machines with less memory than you are mentioning here and with relatively
slow CPUs; so it is strange that you get the behavior you are describing.

Is any document open when you start the application (Stylus Studio by
default remembers the documents open when it was closed the last time)?

Thanks,
Minollo

My XML source is about 60MB large. Now, I get error messages that there's no space left on C:\Temp . Stylus Studio attempts to write a file IDE49.xml with a size of about 120MB there, and I think that's the reason why it is so slow. The 60MB is only a sample, in production the file size will be much larger. When I close all files in Stylus Studio and restart it, it's starting quite well. However, when I then open the XSLT file, it takes several minutes to build the 120MB Temp file. Any solution to get out of this?

Stylus makes use of the TEMP directory to store temporary files, like the
translation in Unicode of your current XML/XSLT document.

File system is usually quite fast in handling manipulation/creation of
files in the range a few hundreds of MB; if you make TEMP (environment
variable) point to a location where you have plenty of space and whose host
disk is reasonably fast, you should see a pretty smooth performance.

In general we regularly test Stylus with files up to 120MB; how well you
will be able to manipulate these files, or how much bigger the files you
can open will be, depends on a few configuration details of your machine
(available physical memory, dimension of the page file, current load of the
machine...).

From tests and experience Stylus is the XML tool that better than any
other handles large documents. But even in our case you will hit a limit.

Ivan,

unfortunately I could not reply to you by mail.

I have a Pentium II, NT4 SP5, 330MB RAM. I don't start Stylus Studio over a network resource, nor do I edit files over the network. Any help would be appreciated, because we are in the progress of a purchase decision. With this performance, I can't argue for Stylus Studio.

Regards,
Christian
