Optimization issue with includes and attribute-sets

 Optimization issue with includes and attribute-sets
Greetings!

Using xslt 2.0, xpath 2.0, xsl-fo, saxon8b:

I have a stylesheet that contains all of my attribute sets for a complex
transformation.  The templates are modularized in separate files that
may include the attributes.xsl and one or more of the other templates.
This is causing the attribute set to be applied once for every file that
directly or indirectly references it - sometimes 20 times for a single
block.  While this doesn't cause a problem in the output, it sure is not
optimized. For example, the code below applies each attribute set twice.

I had a similar problem when one of the files contained a named
template.  I had to change the include to import to avoid the duplicate
template error, but that doesn't fix this issue.  What do I need to do
to resolve this, seemingly bizarre, behavior?

Thanks in advance!
