Re: [Exist-open] base-uri() extremely slow

[Joe B. <meb...@ya...>]

Thanks for the quick responses!

util:document-name() works speedily and solves my problem.

document-uri() suffered the same slowness as base-uri()

I can still send along the files I'm using if you'd like. I would need to 
sanitize them first though.

It really shouldn't take that long, though base-uri does some rather
complex operations internally (I think this should be optimized). What
happens if you use document-uri() or util:document-name() instead?
Those functions should be pretty fast.
