Description vdv 2005-05-10 12:42:01 UTC 
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu/hoary

XSLT transformations making massive use of recursive templates show response
times that can be 10+ times slower than Java implementations such as Saxon.

This has been reported on the xml-tech@xmlfr.org mailing list where you'll find
the details and a repro case (see for instance
http://xmlfr.org/listes/xml-tech/2005/05/0058.html and associated messages).

Thanks,

Eric

True, Libxslt needs too much time to process this scenario.
I didn't look into the example-stylesheet of this issue, but since
Libxslt is not optimized wrt tail-recursive templates, we should
try to optimize this first and see if it helps.
Comment 2 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 11:00:40 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxslt/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
