I was trying to achieve the equivalent of the recursive Factorial

<xsl:function name="f:fac" as="xs:integer">
<xsl:param name="nr" as="xs:integer" />
<xsl:sequence select="if($nr = 0) then 1 else f:fac($nr -1) * $nr" />
</xsl:function>

Which gives in a split second for:
<xsl:sequence select="f:fac(100)" />

Not that bad for an interpreted language, my calculator is not that precise...
