We found that in combination with Matt Sergeant's XML::LibXSLT module, a 
speed penalty of 50% or more is not uncommon, especially in a mod_perl 
environment.  This is probably due to Perl catching all the debug 
messages.  It caught us by surprise: we realized something fishy was going 
on when benchmarking revealed almost no difference between writing xml out 
to files and executing xsltproc and executing pre-compiled xml and 
stylesheets from memory.
