I don't think you want to load 25MB of data into Flash Player... bad things will probably happen. Putting that much into tree a would almost certainly be a very bad scene. Can you put the data into a database somewhere and query that?

The actual XML file is about 25MB, and I have to download it weekly (from the National Do Not Call Registry).
