Well, for sufficiently large xml documents, it blows the address space up when using a DOM model.

IBMs Cobol can play nicely in a 32-bit world. But IBM gave up half of that to keep the Luddites happy. The OS and other miscellaneous stuff consume a nice chunk of what is left. An IBM Cobol program manipulating an xml dom has a practical maximum of about a 30.5-bit space.

One and a half gig isn't exactly small, but it isn't beyond the realm of reality in this day and age.

What does that have to do with XML parser anyway?

And be aware that IBMs' cobol still doesn't support 64 bits.
