Very much agree with Dimitre and Wendell here: move production work to XSLT 2.0 in general, start to experiment with XSLT 3.0 capability where you really need the streaming support.

There is a bit of a relief, but I am having to make a decision on whether we upgrade from XSLT1.0 to XSLT3.0 directly? The code base is not very big and we are OK to rewrite to adapt to better coding practices that come with XSLT2 and 3. > > I am assuming that the coding paradigm is slightly different in XSLT3..

I am fairly confident that the XSLT2 is a good point to start. The only reason XSLT3 was even in the discussion was because of the HUGE xml files. Currently we run a Sax Java splitter over the big XMLs and run XSLT1 files over the smaller chunks. This works well. My options with XSLT2 would be to change the XSLT1 to XSLT2 and keep remaining things same.. > > With XSLT3, we may consider removing the SAX splitters, as it may no longer be used.
