Oh, you might want to look into pre-compiled stylesheets, too. Saxon
supports those. I don't know about Xalan.
It does: see http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/xsltc_usage.html

Well, XSLTC compiles XSLT into Java. Compiled style sheets are usually
a bit less drastic, it just means the style sheet is kept in a
javax.xml.transform.Templates object.

Sorry, my mistake.

This saves parsing the XML into an internal data structure and static optimizations.
Standard Xalan supports compiled style sheets in the latter sense too.
Not that XSLTC is actually a completely separate code base and has
quite a bit more problems than standard Xalan.

Yep. Still Sun has adopted it and made it part of Java 1.5. If the stylesheet can be compiled into Java w.o. problems, it is noticeably quite a bit faster (for all but the first run, evidently).


Cheers,

Andreas
