RE: [xsl] Benefits of using xsl:key

2009-11-04 16:18:59

That the optimization option in Saxon EE often makes it not 
necessary to use xsl:key 

Correct.

but that in many situations you can 
obtain even greater performance by fine tuning the match 
attribute by hand using xsl:key?

I'd say "some situations". Particularly those situations where keys are
being used for Muenchian grouping, duplicates elimination etc. Even better
is to rewrite such applications to use xsl:for-each-group or
distinct-values().
