I would tend to agree. Running a transform based on your 
sample the time only doubled between a simple sort and your 
code. I could not see any reason you should be seeing five 
times worse. 

My guess would be it is a "feature" of the XSLT processor 
you are using or there is something else in your stylesheet 
that is causing the problem. The 5 secs for a simple sort 
is also fairly poor (assuming you are running on a 
recent-ish PC) so that may also indicate a processor issue.
