Thanks for your suggestions Mike. I am looking at the solution you had
suggested. I am at the moment sticking to saxon5.5.1 for some reasons. I
looked at the documentation for saxon:preview and the sample play.xsl. I am
all set to do a basic test ..can I give a wildcard * to say preview all
elements?
like.
<saxon:preview mode = "preview" elements = "*"/>
Or do we have to give the specific element's name??
Also will it only work if we have a template of that name.. I am asking this
because i am making use of a for-each and not a template.?
Thanks
Vasu

Subject: RE: [xsl] performance issues saxon
As I replied to another post on this subject today, some of your options
are:
(a) buy lots of memory (at least 10 times the source file size), and
carefully configure the JVM to make sure it is being used
(b) use a SAX filter to break the document up into small pieces before
transformation
(c) use saxon:preview to transform the document one piece at a time
(d) load the data into an XML or SQL database
(e) use STX
Many people have found that saxon:preview works well in this situation.
It's not a feature I'm very fond of (it's rather fragile if you try to
do anything too clever with it), but it does enable you to process large
documents using small amounts of memory, without learning how to write
in Java.

Subject: [xsl] performance issues saxon
Hi all,
I have a bit of problem running saxon for my XML which is as
huge as 250Mg. ( monster markup language :) ). The
transformer fails as it runs out of memory. Is there any
suggestions to situations like this. The XML is designed by a
different team , and I would want to look into it to see if
there are any ways of optimising . I also looked at -X option
of java to get round the out of memory exception.While i do
this , It would be quite helpful if the Gurus here can let me
know some tips regarding how to deal with situations like
this.I am looking at ways to reduce the size of the file at
the moment. Thanks a lot Vasu
