Re: [xsl] Size limit for input file , while transforming ??

["Simon Bracken" <sbracken@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I suspect that your real problem may lie elsewhere if you intend to
serialize the result of your transformation.

There is a property, MaxXMLSize which may be used to set the maximum size of
document that can be loaded into a DOM object (MSXML 3.0 SP4 & MSXML 4.0
SP2).  A value of zero for this property signifies "no limit", the largest
size specifiable is (2 exp 22) - 1 characters  or multiples of 1024
characters depending on how you interpret the following

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/xmlsdk/htm/xml2nd_pro_v4_9dut.asp

Getting back to serialization, I have found that MSXML can baulk during
serialization and report "out of memory" in the parseError property even in
cases where there is lots of virtual memory left and MaxXMLSize is zero.  I
use 4.0 SP2.
