I would have thought that the major changes should come first. If you've decided, for example, that a scene needs a stronger end and you rewrite it, you'll need to go back and check that the new end is well written.

Although sometimes, it occurs to me, going through and proofreading on a superficial level can help you see the forest for the trees. Just saying.
