how do you know? it depends on the implementation, surely. in all the
XSLT processors so far, the whole document is memory, so accessing 
"ancestor-or-self::*/@xml:lang" is going to be pretty fast.

if you care about real efficiency, don't use XSLT today....

PS personally, I'd build the I18N stuff into a separate XML file and read
that at process time. document() is a wonderful thing.
