  At that point you're exhibiting serious ignorance, sorry for being brutal.
The tree is generated as the result of the stylesheet processing.
There is nothing performance wise to gain to to convert it to an event
flow. Don't start talking about performances of a process when you
obviously don't understand how things work !

  Read the API it's trivial. The API to apply a stylesheet is precisely
based on reusing an existing in memory tree.
    http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/docs.html
    http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/html/libxslt-transform.html#XSLTAPPLYSTYLESHEET

   the tutorial covers the basic case, please go read the damn documentation
and please stop trying to avoid doing your homework. You will have to read
and learn to use the API, period. Nobody is gonna write the code for you.
Is that clear ? Now read instead of just dumping questions on the channel,
You have exceeded your quota of dumb questions and assertions for the week.
