I agree with what's been said, and would add that if you cannot use Flash 9 AS3 for your XML, then be wary of the third party XML parsers when dealing with XML files of this size. I had been in love with xfactorstudio's Xpath classes (which are mostly great by the way), until I had to read in a large XML file and convert to objects in Flash (I had to convert to objects in order to preprare the data for a webservice transfer). I ended up abandoning those classes and used the build-in XML classes. While very cumbersome to use, it was a huge improvement in performance.
