Cached XML documents

Since XSLT stylesheet, template, and schema documents are largely invariant, performance can usually be improved by caching previously loaded versions of these documents in memory.

For some applications, it may be useful to disable caching. If XSLT stylesheet, template, or schema files are generated or replaced in real time, then the cached documents would need to be replaced as well.

If system resource availability becomes critical because a large number of documents are occupying virtual memory, then caching may cause system degradation.

Several XML statements may be used to enable or disable document caching. These statements include: XML ENABLE CACHE, XML DISABLE CACHE, and XML FLUSH CACHE. By default, caching is enabled.
