    I appreciate the suggestion, but that looks like a Java library. Interpreted languages make me feel dirty. Java makes me feel even dirtier. If it’s not C, C++, or ASM, is it really worth using?

      Idk. Been doing it for nearly 20 years and before that I was doing IBM’s take on VBScript for another 10. So I have my own perspective there. I’ve only ever had to parse massive xmls when doing web apps, and for web backends I really only like Java and NodeJS.

      But everyone is entitled to their own take. I would imagine there is a streaming parser in other languages as well.
