Hi Peter,

To avoid the delays when entering XPath you need to disable the XPath 
content completion Options->Preferences -- Editor / Content Completion / 
XPath -- Enable content completion in XPath expressions.

oXygen supports eXist and Berkeley XML DB in all editions, the 
Enterprise version covers the commercial databases.

Best Regards,
George
