[basex-talk] function parse-xml() very slow in embedded mode

19 Feb 2014

      Hi

I'm using BaseX in embedded mode (no database) and need to transform an xml
payload that contains elements containing string-encoded xml in this form

...
<str><objectInstance fetchDate="2014-02-14T13:00:53.374+01:00">

 <createdDateTime>2012-12-04T08:55:26.195Z</createdDateTime>
               </objectInstance></str>
...

I have both tried using xquery update (copy, modify) and with a simple
identity-transform function that intercepts the <str/> element and replaces
it with the results of parse-xml(.)

When executing the query in BasexGUI both solutions performs very well.
However if i invoke it via the QueryProcessor in my java-process it is 50
to 100 times slower.

Any clues to what i might be missing?
