First of all: don't use SAX. Use ElementTree's iterparse() function. That

Unless I'm missing something, that only helps if the final tree fits into
memory. What do you suggest other than SAX if your XML file may be
hundreds of megabytes?
Well, what about using ElementTree's iterparse() function in that case?
That's what it's good at, and its cElementTree version is extremely fast.
