DOM is a memory resident image of your entire XML file. So it's going
to be at least as big, right? Then the issue is how many bytes of
storage are required for each node in the DOM tree, that gives you the
multiplicative effect. 

The current DOM is known to be inefficient, hence the new IDOM
implementation. Give it a try instead, but you're not likely to get
away from using a huge amount of memory. Use SAX 1/2 instead.
