Most of the processors are now doing some kind of preprocessing of the
stylesheet to create an in-memory representation that is efficient to
execute, and reusable on multiple source documents. Whether this is
correctly described as "compiling", I'm not sure: I doubt anyone is
generating machine-executable instructions or even Java bytecodes. I don't
think any product yet makes the "compiled" stylesheet persistent: that could
presumably be the next stage.
