Re: How do i optimize my stylesheet for speed?

With respect to the plug for DGXT and XSLJIT, how do they compare in performance to Saxon and
Xalan? I also use XPath to query XML documents and the only framework that has allowed me to do
this easily is the one that comes with Xalan, is something like that available in DGXT?
