Wasn't Vincenzo known mostly as a theoretician? Should we see this more
   as a treatise on writing variations than intended for public
   performance?

     I think this one wins the prize, but I am not sure variations on
     this
     kind should win, as they are a sort of grab bag one could select
     from
     for any particular performance. I think even a Renaissance audience
     would be put to sleep by an hour-long set of variations.
     So what's the longest non-variation piece?
