Sorted!
I installed msxml4 and then struggled for an hour or so with an
encoding error (UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec.... etc) which was
fixed by altering your code from:
return proc.output --> return proc.output.encode('utf-8')
The performance of MSXML over 4suite is substantial.
4suite: http://python.pointy.co.nz/test = 2.5s
MSXML: http://python.pointy.co.nz/test_msxml = 1.1s
I'd like to eventually break all ties with MS at some stage. It'll be
interesting to test this performance on a Linux server.
Thank you for your help Ross.
