XSLT and Streaming
XSLT 1.0 and XSLT 2.0 were not designed to allow XML streaming of the input to output. The whole input document had to be read into memory before it could be processed.
Future implementations may allow XML streaming to reduce latency between the input and the output. It is especially important when transformations are chained together in XML Pipelines, for example in XProc.

Famous quotes containing the word streaming:
“Who wants to become a writer? And why? Because it’s the answer to everything. To “Why am I here?” To uselessness. It’s the streaming reason for living. To note, to pin down, to build up, to create, to be astonished at nothing, to cherish the oddities, to let nothing go down the drain, to make something, to make a great flower out of life, even if it’s a cactus.”
—Enid Bagnold (1889–1981)
