[xquery-talk] xquery with large xml file

[Michael Kay]

It doesn't make sense to try and answer this question without knowing what
product you are using.

The query doesn't look particularly problematic. With Saxon it runs against
the 10Mb XMark database in about 20 seconds, without any special memory
settings. The output file is about 23Mb.
