I have been using an XSL profiler ( catchXSL ) and notice that I have a
significant performance bottle neck
in looking up keys from an external XML document.

      lookUpDoc is initialized as:
          <xsl:variable name = "lookUpDoc" select =
"document('schemes.xml')"/>
      Code Snippet:
                <xsl:for-each select = "$lookUpDoc">
                        <xsl:variable name = "tagValue" select =
"key($schemeName,$normalizedTag)"/>
                </xsl:for-each>

This lookup is called too often. Is there any faster way to achieve this ?.

I don't see anything wrong with the code above. What do your key definitions 
look like (xsl:key instructions), and can you give us an idea of what 
schemes.xml looks like, and how the code snippet above is being called?
