xmltodict becomes slow when you have an XML file with large texts.
Enabling the parser.buffer_text option dramatically increases performance.
Benchmark below. Unittests still work.
Code used to benchmark:
#19.9860811234 seconds without buffer_text
#0.059289932251 seconds with buffer_text
So 300 times faster
