Do you have any performance metrics on rendering a much larger example (1MB, 10MB, 50MB, ?) of this by using ActiveX objects to load, transform and render this versus embedding the JavaScript in the XSLT? It would would be valuable to know if pulling both the xml and xsl files into an HTML document, processing it and outputting it into a <div> is faster than the method you describe.

  It might be. It's a different approach to this kind of processing with its own potential optimizations and limitations. Metrics would be difficult to gather because of the number of variables involved; someone would have to test these based on their own environment to make a proper comparison.
