You can use the testXSLT command line application, which reports timing
information by default.  I should warn you, however, that the granularity
is not good.  We could probably get better information through
platform-specific calls, but there haven't really been any previous
requests for it.

I will add an option to the Xalan command line executable that reports
timing information.  It should appear in the next release of Xalan-C.
