I'm far from know enough about the subject to give some advice, but
the length of an XPATH expression doesn't necessarily give the
complexity of the expression, for example this two expressions does
the same thing but the length is very different:

//somenode[@someattribute]
/rootnode/descendant-or-self::somenode[attribute::someattribute]

Just a thought.
