The full-scale document is approximately 300MB and has around 500K (or maybe 1M) elements.
The only way I can see to generate the document so I don’t have to change it when moving from temp to production is to set the database name to the production version and then have the code that uses it during construction add the temp name prefix dynamically. This will work and shouldn’t be too hard to retrofit to my existing code. I don’t get any failure indication in the BaseX log, so if there’s a failure reported elsewhere, I don’t know where to find it. The server has 4GB of RAM, which should be enough. But, as I think more about this process, even if I was able to have the XSLT succeed, it’s wasteful and best avoided anyway.

Why does it fail? Why is it slow? Does it run out of memory? Is it reading a large input document?
