Hi Mike,
   Thanks for your reply to my questions. I have some more questions, please ...

In case of Saxon, would you say that there is some intermediate
representation? I think, the user (or, programmer) has the view that
he/she is just running a XSLT program in one pass.

In case of XSLT, how do we differentiate between compile time and runtime?

I might guess, that prior to creation of the result XDM tree it's
compilation. Does XSLT 2.0 spec define compilation and runtime phases
for XSLT?
