Summary: index generation slowness

Initial Comment:
gtk-doc uses the docbook style sheets to generate HTML
for api docs. api docs by nature have lots of
index-terms. we're having a big problem to cure the
slowness of the index generation as described in [1].

In the bug-report we've tracked down the slowness quite
a bit. Is there anything you can think of to speedup
the index generation?

Not at XSLT level. This should be optimized in XSLT 
processor. Remember XSLT is not assembly language which can 
be optmized at the source level.

Sorry, this wasn't the point. The question was, if someone
sees a way to optimize this on the xslt layer?

There is some work going on in libxslt to also optimize on
their side:

Please try the same stylesheet with different XSLT processor 
-- Saxon 6.5.5. In my experience complex grouping is better 
handled by Saxon, not by libxslt.
