The performance of XPath2 in the plain Helios version does not scale well. This is due to poor algorithms in a few places and a bad overhead in the way we use ResultSequences. Now that we have good compliance, we can aim for better performance. Adding performance regression tests for some of the main scenarios will help us so that we don't degrade the performance/scalablity unknowingly.
Created attachment 172007 [details] Simple performance test for XPath2 Simple performance test patch which will try a simple count on a number of nodes and see if it scales. This is just for inspiration, I know the System.out must go :-)
