Re: [xsl] Does <xsl:copy> use a lot of memory? Is there an alternative that is more efficient?

Potentially yes. But not really because of the xsl:copy, if you changed
it to xsl:sequence you'd probably get the same behaviour. If you are
using lots of variables and don't want them to take up space, you need
to have a very good idea how your xslt processor's optimiser works and
constrain your usage to uses which the optimiser can optimise away....
