You may have a look at gaulois-pipe, which is design to cache XSL 
compile results, to run multi-files transformation in parallel, and 
other simple things made to go fast.

https://github.com/cmarchand/gaulois-pipe/wiki

We use it a lot, as it allows, through a pipeline definition file, to 
run various XSL pipelines, without writing anymore java code or shell code.

Best,
Christophe
