  I don't know what the OP has in mind, but I guess with 30,000
documents to validate, it is interesting to use only one process and to
load only once the schema.  Your loop is a shell loop, so will create
30,000 process, each of them will initialize, load the schema,
etcetera.

  I guess it would be possible with a schema processor like Saxon to
load once the schema and loop over the 30,000 files with a little
custom application.

  But if it's just a one-shot and the processing time is not really
important, your solution is the right one IMHO.
