I am pre-processing batches of about 1000 XML files at a time using Saxon. Part of the pre-process involves aggregating linked XML documents into the current document. Naturally, I use the document() function for this: <xsl:template match="table-inclusion"> <!-- Do some cunning index/key lookup to get the inclusion's path (not shown) --> <xsl:apply-templates select="document($inclusionpath)//incltable" /> </xsl:template> This node-set returned by document() then gets normalised by a general template rule: <xsl:template match="@*|node()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> The problem is, this runs so slowly that it is jeopardising the whole processing pipeline. Some of the documents have five or six inclusions that have to be processed, and since the inclusions themselves are not massive, I'm assuming that the log-jam is in how I am pulling in the inclusions (ie. the document() function). How would you optimise this? Would a deep-copy with <xsl:copy-of> be faster? Or am I better off writing my own processor for this aggregating step (easy enough).
