In Saxon, //bar is handled by an index, so exists(//bar) should be quite
fast after the first time (when the index is built).
What about:
<xsl:template match="foo">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="ancestor::*/@type = 'a'">
....
<xsl:when test="ancestor::*/@type = 'b'">
vs
<xsl:template match="foo[ancestor::*/@type = 'a']">
<xsl:template match="foo[ancestor::*/@type = 'b']">
Would you say the two are roughly equivalent, or are there other
subtle differences?
