Re: [xmljs-users] parsing 1200 nodes

[David J. <dj...@ya...>]

Hi Chandan,

1200 nodes is pretty much the upper limit XML for <SCRIPT> can handle. At that point the
JavaScript interperator starts getting bogged down with all the objects it needs to create. A lot
of it depends on the speed of the computer as well (naturally).

If XML for <SCRIPT> is too slow, you might try sarissa at http://sarissa.sourceforge.net/. I've
never tried it myself, but it uses the native DOM implementation of IE and Mozilla so the speed
should be much faster. The price you'll pay is that you'll probably lose Safari, Konq and Opera
support. You also need to be aware that Sarissa is GPL (rather than LGPL) so if you want to use it
you need to be prepared to accept the more viral terms of its license. One option would be to use
Sarissa for IE and Mozilla and XML for <SCRIPT> for the other browsers. The other browers would be
slower, but at least functional after the initial load.

If you do try it and it works, please let me know and I'll add it to the FAQ.

Best regards,

David
