It's always worth trying it on a different processor. Sometimes there can be
considerable differences, and sometimes a particular construct will perform
badly on one processor and well on another. Sometimes Saxon runs ten times
faster than Xalan - but by no means always.
Also try running your stylesheet with different volumes of data and seeing
how the performance scales. You need to look out for anything that's causing
quadratic performance (double the size, four times the time) - often caused
by constructs such as //x within a loop, or preceding::x.

Subject: Re: [xsl] Performance degraded with grouping and sorting.
Kev,
Thanks for your reply..If you dont mind can you or
somebody please point to something, where I should be
looking around to increase the performance.
Do you have any ideas how to change the XSLT processor
properties or move to a better performing processor. I
am using Xalan processor currently and you are right I
have a good configuration PC with 1 GB RAM.
regards,
Bhupi.

Hi,
I have an XML something like this.

which I think is too much.
I would tend to agree. Running a transform based on
your
sample the time only doubled between a simple sort
and your
code. I could not see any reason you should be
seeing five
times worse.
My guess would be it is a "feature" of the XSLT
processor
you are using or there is something else in your
stylesheet
that is causing the problem. The 5 secs for a simple
sort
is also fairly poor (assuming you are running on a
recent-ish PC) so that may also indicate a processor
issue.
