If you have files that big, simple xml is not an option, because the
memory will run out, and simple xml reads the whole file in memory and
makes a copy of it. What you really want is xml parsing in "streaming"
or "pull parsing" mode. You can read about it here:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-pullparsingphp.html?ca=dgr-lnxw06XMLReader
However, I guess this is also not very helpful since you're running
PHP 4 and XMLReader has been introduced in PHP5. I am fighting this at
this moment also (with no solution yet), as I have to parse huge ONIX
files from book publishers (some are 90 Mb!). Let me know if you get
lucky.
