For speed and obfuscation I guess you may complile a stylesheet into a java
class. As far as I remember, alphaworks.ibm.com has a technology and so has
the apache xml initiative. And many more.
If this is ony to secure the stylesheet itself - not access to it, I guess
it will be a right solution.

Bye.
