RE: [xsl] performance when using document() function

["Philip Fitzsimons" <pfitzsimons@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have found that often you have on xml file that you wish to use more than
once, for example a mapping file.

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

	$mapping

Does anyone know what the performance consequences are 
when using the document() function? 

Tips on improving performance are welcome.
