The output I want is a table with

Should I use Keys instead?
In general yes, the main problem will be preceding search. If your input is
smallish you may get away with just changing preceding to preceding-sibling
which would help the performance somewhat.
The better solution would to be create key over the vform elements using
Category as the key value. You can then use key() & generate-id() to test if
a given vform is the first with that Category value. Something like this
(untested),
<xsl:key name="vformByCategory" match="vform" use="Category"/>
<xsl:for-each select="/Search/SearchResults/vform">
<xsl:if test="generate-id(.)=
generate-id(key('vFormByCategory',Category)[1])">
<!-- Do something -->
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
