Hi,
what if you don't know about the final lenght (in the PDF I mean) of
Data set 1,2 and3? What if you want all the PDF pages with the same
lengh except the last one? I thought the solution was to put all stuf in
the same page-sequence as described in W3C raccomandation for FO
(http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice6.html#fo-section) but I didn't know that
it could cost about 2 MB of ram per page... tooooo much for me

Hello,
We encountered similar issues a long time ago.
Because of the irregular structure of the page breaks, we used an
approach based on SAX filters (quite complex) located just before the
FOP ContentHandler aiming at transforming page-break into page sequences.
The SAX filter approach allowed us to keep low memory consumption.
eg.
<doc>
<page-sequence>
Data set 1
<break/>
Data set 2
<break/>
Data set 3
</page-sequence>
</doc>
transformed by SAX filters into :
<doc>
<page-sequence>
Data set 1
</page-sequence>
<page-sequence>
Data set 2
</page-sequence>
<page-sequence>
Data set 3
</page-sequence>
</doc>

We use a writting method that allows to cut heavy documents in short
sequences.
So, each sequence is titled and we can insert a page-break before title.
It's especially an analytic approach, not a physical process, that
consists in structuring and mapping the information.
