 Hmmm... Yes and know. I would lean more towards things being faster when you consider that a significant majority of the requests are for browsers that support XSLT. Of course, dependent upon how busy your site is, a good portion of those requests are going to be from search engines. For less busy sites in which the perentage of non-XSLT-support requests are going to be noticably higher, I think it's going to be a matter of testing to really find out for sure if there is an overall savings or not. Also worth pointing out, and just to be fair: Over the coming years, mobile devices are going to demand a greater share of the percentage of requests. Of course, in this case, the need for a server system that transforms the output into a greater number of formats is going to increase, *especially* when you consider than more phones by default are supporting SVG[1] and MSFT has significant interest in promoting the use of Silverlight in the mobile device space. So in this regard, the use of an advanced server-side processing system that has the ability to output multiple format types is going to increase, where as the ability to transform via client-side XSLT is going to decrease dependent, of course, on whether or not client-side XSLT makes its way into the mobile device space. I personally have my doubts that it will as it would be a bit too power hungry to be attractive to a mobile device manufacturer, but I could easily be wrong (and hope that I am.) +1 Jirka +1 M:D [1] http://svg.org/special/svg_phones (WARNING: Page is ~3megs of phone pics and related text) -- /M:D M.
