Can anyone point me to an up-to-date comparison of XSLT processors? I
keep looking and not finding.

I am specifically looking for information that will help me select a
free or commercial processor that:

- can handle very large documents (up to 30MB)
- supports XSLT multiple document output capabilities or an extension
that does something similar (Ideally would like support for v2.0 in all
areas but more important to support large documents)

Already found was unable to use Saxon (ran out of memory on large
documents). MSXML and Xalan-C process documents nicely but can't do
multiple document output from within stylesheet (can I?). Xalan-J works
(using redirect:write) but is abysmally slow (3-4 times as slow as MSXML
or Xalan-C) for the large documents and this will be a big issue in the
target production environment.

Thanks!
