RE: Performance Tuning

The XSL that I use has  three "preceding-sibling::"
The time taken to parse a 150KB XML in Xalan is 1.9
sec and with Saxon8 its 1.6 secs.


With Saxon8 this is likely to perform much better using positional grouping:
xsl:for-each-group group-starting-with="pattern", for example. I'm afraid I
don't have time today to give you more detail.
