Dear All,

I would like to be able to find the element associated with an @xml:id
quickly, without knowing the element path or name. Can this be done with
MarkLogic?

The id() function is meant to do this but it is horribly slow when faced
with masses of documents. For example,

collection()//*...@xml:id eq 'something'] 

takes thirty seconds and I need it to work in hundredths of seconds
instead.

(If I put in the element name, the above query runs in about a hundredth
of a second.)

Best,
