[xsl] comments take time? XSLT 1.0

I'm being told that I should strip all comments out as they slow down
the processing of xml using xslt 1.0, specifically the msxsl transform engine.



Has anyone done any measurements on this please? Any suggestions as to the impact? What kind of overhead - assuming no templates match on comments explicitly.



Even if not with the Microsoft engine.


regards
