Depends what you're doing. If you're pulling stuff out of a database
then perhaps so, but if you are pulling in some basic XML list
structures and combining them together into some HTML table together
with associated class attributes and CSS decorations then the generated HTML
can easily be bigger than the source XML.

Presumably that is why OASIS have just gone to the trouble to release
 http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/docbook/xml/simple  


    * The DTD must work in online browsers (it's XML not SGML). It must
       be small enough to download more-or-less painlessly.
