Just for the heck of it, I decided to provide some actual data. Since I don't have any sufficiently humongous OpenDocument files, I made a dummy.

test1.xml is
    <parent>
    <child>[three random numbers]</child> [repeat 1,000,000 times]
    </parent>

test1.zip contains a copy of test1.xml

test2.xml is an exact copy of test1.xml, except that "child" has been replaced throughout by "this-is-a-very-long-XML-element-name-for-test-purposes".

test2.zip contains a copy of test2.xml

Clearly, the size of the tagname is fairly unimportant.
