New issue 824 by pekka.klarck: Do not read whole output XML into memory
when generating logs and reports
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=824
Currently the whole output XML is read into memory when creating logs and
reports. This approach is simple but it uses a lot of memory which slows
down log/report generation significantly when the output file is large.
We should, instead, read the output into memory in parts and generate logs
and reports in pieces. One way to accomplish this is handling split outputs
better (issue 139) but we should also be able to parse the XML in event
based manner.
