Hi everybody,
Is there any alternative to Parser.XML, accessible from Pike? Modules etc? Or are there any plans to rewrite it in C, possibly using something like libxml2? Perhaps someone may ask - what is wrong with Parser.XML?.. Well, it takes approximaly 20M RAM and 6 seconds to parse (only) 1M XML file (it contains approx. 80000 tags). This is a way too much, IMHO (libxml2 takes approx. 0.5s and only 4M RAM for same file - while this is not perfect too but more acceptable). Any ideas? Suggestions? Comments? Flames? :) Regards, /Al
