Re: Speeding up processing (with sablotron or saxon)

ok I have a piece of XSLT that processes a large XML file into smaller
chunks. The problem I have is that the deeper down into the XML file I am
processing the longer it takes. Is this just due to the way XSLT parsers
work or can I tweak my XSL file so it processes faster?

I get the same effect when I used to process the file as one pass using
Saxon Result:document as I do processing as seperate XSL files with either
Saxon or Sablotron.

This is the seperate file XSL file:- (Change the server[@name='Ahazi'] as
needed)
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent='yes' encoding="utf-8"/>

<xsl:template match="server" />
<xsl:template match="server[@name='Ahazi']">
<resources>
<xsl:for-each
select=".//resource[not(@swgcraft_id=preceding::*/@swgcraft_id)]">

Cheers,
Wendell
