  <xsl:for-each select=".">

That is a no-op: you are already on the current node (.) and this just
iterates over a list of exactly one node, the current one.

You then pass in . again as a parameter although the information about
the current node is available to the called template directly as .
(and you don't use that parameter anywhere)

  <xsl:variable name="SSL" select="//SSL"/>
  <xsl:for-each select="$SSL">

That is equivalent to


  <xsl:for-each select="//SSL">

and since it starts with / it ignores the current node and searches the
entire document each time for all the SSL nodes.

This probably isn't what you want to do, but since you gave no
indication of what your input looks like, or which nodes you do want to
sum, it's hard to suggest what to change.
