Generally, when using XSLT, you need to load the entire document into memory before applying transformations. I think at some point, you would encounter memory stress and possible system instability. To avoid this you could use SAX, but it is a real pain to maintain processing state. Two recommendations I would make are: use eXist as an embedded database to store the XML document and then process the transformations, or use STX for transformations. eXist: http://exist.sourceforge.net STX: http://stx.sourceforge.net/documents -Jason _______________________________________________ Mono-docs-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-docs-list
