     I counted 76 elements in that sample line, 40 of which contained text 
- 116 nodes in total.  The DTM representation (Xalan-J's internal 
representation of an XML document) for a single node uses at least twenty 
bytes, so 200000 lines like your sample would require at least 460MB. 
There were 242 characters of character data in that sample, which would 
add up to another 48MB.

     I don't think that there's a problem here, but I'll experiment a bit 
more.

Thanks,

Henry
