sablotron is very fast, look this:
<real-example>
$ wc -l enlaces.xml gimp.xsl
544 enlaces.xml
400 gimp.xsl
944 total
$ time sabcmd gimp.xsl enlaces.xml > /dev/null
real 0m0.542s
user 0m0.540s
sys 0m0.000s
</real-example>
And with jade:
<real-example>
$ wc -l gimp1.sgml
460 gimp1.sgml
$ time db2html gimp1.sgml > /dev/null
real 0m5.465s
user 0m4.810s
sys 0m0.290s
</real-example>
In gimp.es.gnome.org, we have a lot of XMLs files which are transformed
to HTML or PHP using sablotron, and it takes a few time to complete the
process.

Well, this is a problem if you want all text in a few files, but slice
the content in a lot of files makes easier transforming to HTML, or
other format. Moreover, it will be easier to keep and write :)
BTW, another solution could be use the XSLT to make intermediates files
and, with a script (perl, python...), create the definitives files. That
is: we have one XML, using XSLT we transform it in a pre-HTML (without
headers), and with the script we split it in severals files and add to
it the headers (both HTML and content headers).
