For example, currently I'm working with web services and everithing works fine. The problem appears now, because I have to parse a document containing a lot of information. DOM is not enough to accomplish the object because the document is extremly large, and I don't know how SAX deals with this kind of files. > > I know that XML is not intended for containing so much information, but I have to think about a possible solution. > > What do you think I could act to fix the problem? Well if you're ready to go C or Python, libxml2 recent versions can handle (and validate) very large XML instances using an API based on C# xmlReader, there are documentation at http://xmlsoft.org/xmlreader.html Note that you can ask to expand a subtree and use XPath on it for convenience. I Relax-NG validated a 4.5GByte instance with it a couple of months ago (on a 32bits architecture).
