XML::LibXSLT is libxslt plus a layer of interface code between libxslt
and the interpreted Perl program.  It's not surprising that it's slower
than xsltproc.

I haven't seen any other tutorial, but you can look at the source code
for the tests in the libxslt source code distribution to see how they do
things.

One thing that's undocumented on the libxslt web site is that recent
versions support extensions as 'plugins' in a 'libxslt-plugins'
directory as an alternative to the previous requirement to make your own
xsltproc-variant that linked to your own extension functions.
