https://basex.org/ As we approach the next major release, the latest version comes with many internal refinements and optimizations to save main memory and speed up operations on sequences, strings and characters: • XQuery: Much more memory-efficient representation of XML fragments • XQuery: Faster access to substrings and character sequences • XQuery: Faster iterations with the simple map operator • XQuery 4: more preview features available • CSV/JSON conversions: Less memory consumption • CSV parsing: option for skipping empty fields • GUI, editor: better code completion • Less reflection: Direct access to TagSoup, iXml, JLine • Minor bug fixes For more details, look for the BaseX 11 preview features in our documentation… https://docs.basex.org/index.php?search="Version 11" …and check out the GitHub commit history: https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/commits/main Moreover, the latest BaseX artifacts are made available on Maven Central again.
