RE: Basic performance question

Hi Chris,
 
For my own, i just noticed that using massive piping gived better
performance than massive include. I think that if you have a big stylesheet
made of includes of smaller ones and if these smaller ones do not match
overlapping vocabularies, you may pipe them one after another. Furthermore
as stylesheet are compiled, you avoid to recompiled a big combined
stylecheet when you modify one of its includes.
 
Do i am wrong?
 
Didier.

Hi, 

Sorry if this is an FAQ but I haven't seen it in any of the docs yet. 

On a site with multiple XML pages, is it better to store the templates in a
single large XSL sheet, or would it be better to have many smaller XSL
sheets that are more specific to each XML page.

I imagine that a single large XSL would take longer to parse each time to
find the correct template, but with multiple XSL sheets, there might be more
overhead in loading each one (although I expect they would be cached by
Cocoon?).

Thanks for your thoughts on this. 

Regards, 

Chris
