Re: [xml-bindings]Memoization

  Hum, there is no such mechanism, the only way would be to add an
interface to libxslt to plug-in a document cache. Note that for a single
transformation all the document() result are cached (this is actually
required by the XSLT spec), but there is no mechanism for a more global
cache. Could make sense, could be very small change if one doesn't
try to implement a default cache in libxslt itself.
