If you're that worried about performance, and you are using MS XSLT,
then I would recommend compiling your transforms into "processors" anyway.
Once you've done that all the parsing will be done at load-time (or
wherever you put in the call) and the actual transformations will be
substantially quicker.
Even if you're not compiling the transform, you could still pre-load it,
which would also remove the parse task from the transform time.
