Document. Xalan's borrowing of that API generally behaves similarly. In
local operation, this can yield a significant performance improvement if
you don't actually use all the retrieved values.

In the Xalan samples, there is an example of how to use XPath to create a
NodeIterator object from a Document object. When the statement:
