I also tried SaxonB for Java, but I don't get the current version of
my stylesheet (without the predicate) to run on my XML document. It
fails with an OutOfMemoryError, also when upping the VM's maximum by
-Xmx512000000. I'm using Java 1.6.0_03 and the Saxon B 9.0.02j (I took
this from the archive's name, not sure how to get the version through
parameters.)

Here is the output I get when using SaxonB, ellipses indicate omitted
path names: http://pastebin.com/m4142863c

Any hints?
