Hello Monks,

I need your esteemed pointers or advice to improve the performance of my script

Following is a code snippet for validating a generated XML file against base XSD 
# TMPXML generation goes here by some other script call
xmllint --noout --schema base-schema.xsd $TMPXML 2>/dev/null 1>&2

[download]
only if the above is validated the record would be collected and sent to another process.

Currently, for processing 100 such records just the xmlllint part alone takes about 6.5 minutes on an average to process

Is there any way to improve the approach or cache base-schema.xsd such that its not loaded and processed each time xmllint is being invoked?

Any other pointers to improve the approach?

Many thanks in advance.
