Subject: RE: How do Comments affect Performance? From: Kay Michael <Michael.Kay@xxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2000 18:56:09 +0100 |
Comments in the stylesheet are supposed to be ignored. My reading of that is that they don't even serve to separate text nodes, so <a> <!--comment-->A</a> will output <a> A</a> rather than <a>A</a>, as it would if whitespace nodes were removed before comments were removed. Saxon therefore strips comments before even stripping whitespace nodes, ie. they never find their way on to the tree and thus have absolutely negligible effect on performance.
