Hi,
I've got some difficulties parsing "large" xml files (> 100MB).
A plain SAX parser, as provided by hexpat, is fine. However,
constructing a tree consumes too much memory on a 32bit machine.
see http://trac.informatik.uni-bremen.de:8080/hets/ticket/1248
I suspect that sharing strings when constructing trees might greatly
reduce memory requirements. What are suitable libraries for string pools?
Before trying to implement something myself, I'ld like to ask who else
has tried to process large xml files (and met similar memory problems)?
I have not yet investigated xml-conduit and hxt for our purpose. (These
look scary.)
In fact, I've basically used the content trees from "The (simple) xml
package" and switching to another tree type is no fun, in particular if
this gains not much.
Thanks Christian
