If you are just loading it in and then outputting it, why do you need
DOM XML?
However, DOM parser loads and processes the whole file in memory. So if
you are doing processing, and your XML file is very large (I don't know
what this threshold is), it's generally recommended that you use
event-based parsing, e.g. xml_parser_create(),
xml_set_element_handler(), etc.
