Can anyone add any substance to this remark? With today's typical system RAM of 2GB to 3GB, is it even worth consideration any more that a document might not fit in memory?

Offhand I'd guess the size of the XML file and the size of the DOM tree would be in the same ballpark. So unless I've got more than 500MB of XML to read, I'm clear. Right or wrong?
