Depends on the transformation. A simple XSLT which takes SAX events in and does little more than substitution of certain elements will be blazingly fast. A complicated XSLT which has to do a lot of buffering and recursion could take hours. In general for web usage, XSLT is not as fast as other templating technologies. This may or may not be a problem depending on your expected traffic.
