Firstly, it is hardly ever true that parsing and preparing the stylesheet takes "most of the time". In most cases with Saxon it is around 20% of the time; the actual ratio is highly variable but the highest I have measured is 50%. It can seem longer than this because the Java VM is also warming up during this time, doing JIT compilation etc. > > Has anyone considered this kind of solution for server-side XSL? : > Take the stylesheet, parse it and generate a custom servlet > to perform this transformation.

I eventually abandoned it because it was getting too complex and the performance gains were too marginal. That doesn't mean the approach isn't viable, just that I didn't have the time and energy to complete it. Saxon does provide what is almost as good, a servlet environment in which the stylesheet is prepared once at start of day, and can then be used (interpretively) to process as many source documents as you like.
