Well it doesn't have to be exactly 300K, could be less of course :)
But XHTML needs to be valid.
So any ideas on (roughly) calculating the size? Number of characters perhaps?

XSLT is not a good tool for this job.

XSLT operates on the data model of an XML document, not on the syntax.
Things like namespace declarations could have a significant impact on
the size of a serialized element, and it is not possible to tell in XSLT
how big it will end up.
