Well, that is the case for Saxon, but there is no requirement
to implement strings using UTF-16. XSLT processors that don't
use UTF-16 as their internal encoding won't suffer from this expense.
Sure. All performance statements are local to a particular implementation.
Some processors might even trade memory for speed by using utf-8 internally.
