XML::Twig (in Perl)
http://search.cpan.org/author/MIROD/XML-Twig-3.08/Twig.pm
is an ideal way of handling large files containing XML data structures
(as opposed to document oriented XML): you configure it to parse an
particular element (or set of elements) in to a data structure one at a
time, then handle those data structures.
