Some more details: The current storage layout per node has been fixed to 16 bytes. One byte (8 bits) is reserved for the namespace reference.

Here are a couple of hacky appraches in the spirit of brainstorming ;) * reserve 7 bits for the namespace, and 1 bit for "uses extended namespace". In the top-bit-set objects only, add an extra byte. * Use the first 2 bytes of the element name :) Liam -- Liam Quin, https://www.delightfulcomputing.com/ Available for XML/Document/Information Architecture/XSLT/ XSL/XQuery/Web/Text Processing/A11Y training, work & consulting.
