Subject: Re: [xsl] performance when using document() function From: David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 1 Apr 2003 12:56:49 +0100 |
A good timesaving is to put it into a variable at the root of the template... <xsl:variable name="mapping" select="document('mapping.xml')/root" /> Then use the variable instead of the document Many systems store the result of document() in memory and so using it twice should take no longer than saving it in a variable. Conversely there's nothing in the XSLT spec that says a system has to store the result of a variable rather than re-evaluating it each time it is referenced. However if for a particular XSLT system this does reduce loading/parsing then it would be a saving, yes.
