12 commentsUnhelpfully my only pain point with XML parsing is colleagues refusing to use XML in favour of json or, in really grim moments, yaml.
So I'm delighted to see a sensible modern web language implementation of the one true data exchange format. Thank you for sharing it.
The XML required a good 4GB of RAM to load the model. So… I just read the stream to get to the token I needed and read until the end token.
Obviously, it was faster and required much less memory. The take-away is if you don’t need to parse the model, don’t.
I assume that nowadays, they’re using more sensible format.
Great to see this sort of thing!
