One file is much larger than the other.

Should it make a difference to performance which file you nominate as
input to the stylesheet.


It shouldn't, but that doesn't mean it won't.

You can't ask questions about performance without saying what processor you are 
concerned with.

And the best answer to performance questions is always: measure it.

Incidentally, it's not true (from XSLT 2.0) that the inputs have to be 
asymmetric. I will often supply both inputs as stylesheet parameters, and have 
no principal input document.
