Summary
In this chapter we have discussed in detail the Oracle XDK 10g XSLT Compiler and XSLTVM. We have also showed you how to use them to create one of the fastest software XSLT engines available when the stylesheets can be compiled in advance. You also realized one of the smallest memory footprints during XSLT transformation. In this particular implementation, these compiled stylesheets reside on your file system, but you could just as readily create an implementation in which they are retrieved from a database or URL.
