XSL: For-Each Efficient or Not?

We have been trying to determine whether using XSL:For-Each is having an
impact on the speed of our document publishing. Some of my buddies don't
want to use xsl:for-each because they believe it causes the process to take
a longer amount of time than just doing a template match over and over. Is
this true or no? Is xsl:for-each a performance hog or does it and template
matching take the same amount of time?

Thanks
