Hello,
I measured following elapsed times on an Intel i5 processor:
1. generate all HTML files with dsl script (make html): 0:48 min.
2. generate all HTML files with xslt script (make xslthtml): 16:01 min.
3. generate all HTML files with xslt script in the new environment
(pure Docbook5): 4:07 min.
4. Generating different things via dsl scripts in the new environment
may be possible. But the changelog of the Docbook5 dsl scripts
shows, that the last modification occurred in 2004 - this way is a
dead end.
There is one principle and a lot of minor differences between 2 and 3.
Solution 2 is based on an xml-file and xslt scripts which are based on
Docbook4. The basic difference to 3 is, that in 3 everything is Docbook5
compliant: there are only Docbook5 xml- and xslt-files (as my workflow
is: db4 --> xml --> db5 -- (db5 xslt) --> html). The minor differences
concerns the fact, that actually there are errors in my xml files and
that I made only a few parameterisation to the Docbook5 standard xslt
files - no optimization at all.
I used following tools: perl, xmllint and xsltproc. osx and OpenJade are
obsolete in the new environment (so far, there is much more work to do).

Yes, agreed. The killer objection placed last time was that it took
something like 10x longer to generate the HTML using the XML-based
toolchain than the SGML-based ones. If this is not fixed, let's
forget
about this whole thing until it is. So, would you time the process
using both toolchains and report back?
As it stated in
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/562e061b.1090...@postgrespro.ru
the xml performance may be greatly improved. Alexander, what is
current state of art of your patch ? How slow is xml in compare to sgml ?
