5. I think that evaluating lot's of jexl/jxpath expressions is awfully costly. I was debugging jxpath with FOM_Request problem and it gave me shivers. There's not much really we can do about it.
We could implement an own really minimal expression language that is read only and makes as much as possible at compile time. I'm *not* volountering ;)
me neither :))

Sooner or later we should start write a CTemplateGenerator where we remove stuff that we don't want from JXTG. It will share nearly all code with JXTG the main difference is that it has a different instruction configuration file. I don't know if it is time for it yet.
Considering the automatic change detection, the situation isn't as bad as you think.
IIRC, Sylvain implemented a clever caching mechanism for the TraxTransformer so that it detects changes in xsl:includes. I don't rememember the details but maybe Sylvain can give some pointers.
Anyway, during script compilation the URLs for the included scripts should be registred in the cache validity object, then the next time the script is executed, it can be checked if the main script or any imported scripts has been changed. And we don't need any runtime mechanism anymore.
I'll look into that.
