Agreed. I had worked on a project for a while with XML files that got
up over 300MB. Anything other than stream-based processing with
constant memory usage was impossible.
Whatever happened to that "stream-processing XSLT profile" thread from
way back when? The closest thing to an implementation I've seen were
my own Perl modules and the XML::Twig Perl module.
