If that is a real concern, I'd rather reduce the memory footprint of minidom than put actual performance figures into the documentation that will likely outdate over time. Notice that the documentation doesn't claim that it is a lightweight XML library, only that it's a ligthweight DOM implementation. SAX is, of course, even lighter-weight. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11379> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
