I would slightly question your "without a parser" sentiment. Perhaps the
XML you'll deal with is fairly regular, and won't contain unexpected
Unicode values, or CDataSections, or comments that look like markup, or
entities, but over time that can (and likely will) change.
The other thing to consider is testing. In the general case, the
processing you'd need to do is probably comparable in complexity to just
using a parser, and the "off the shelf" ones have the benefit of
extensive testing.
A SAX parser, like say Xerces-j [1] or Piccolo [2] can be made to work
even on 200Mb files with quite low memory requirements and high
processing speed.
Another approach, for specific markup to handle the includes, is
XInclude [3].
