There was a bug ("issue") in the XSLT transformation engine included in the
1.0 .Net Framework such that using key/keyref slowed your transorms to a
crawl rather than speeding things up. There was a subsequent "hotpatch"
that improved the situation a bit -- so that using key/keyref didn't hurt,
but it still didn't help much. Using the old MSXML4 on the other hand
produced dramatic speedups using key/keyref.
Does anyone know whether this problem has been properly fixed either as a
patch or perhaps as part of the 1.1 Framework release?
Thanks,
Bill
