If you are using an XSLT engine that implements the document() function,
like XT, you can put the string map in a separate XML file.

<xsl:variable name="StringMapRoot" select="document(URIofStringMap.xml)"/>
.
.
.
<xsl:variable name="texti"
select="string($StringMapRoot/StringMap/texti[textg=$textg]/@out)"/>
