Re: [xslt] efficiency

Thanks. I'll check that out.

Well, I've figured out that doing this:

select="//page/@id"

...in a loop is bad.

Since I use that value in a lot of places, I did this at the top of the
stylesheet file:

<xsl:variable name="pageid" select="//page/@id"/>

and refer to $pageid rather than //page/@id

...  one order of magnitude faster.
