Well, AxKit caching doesn't work that way actually. It caches the final output 
only. Yes of course if the input to the pipeline hasn't changed then the 
final output will be generated. My point was that if that output HAS changed 
then not only does your XSP page have to be RUN again, but because the XSP 
page itself was created during the transformation, and AxKit doesn't hold 
onto intermediate steps (though in this case it wouldn't matter, would it) 
then the XSP also has be be RECOMPILED INTO PERL AGAIN, which is a much more 
expensive proposition than just running it.
