Can be very slow, at least with embedded data

[Nanonid]

On an XML with embedded data URI and SVG element text, parsing and then subsequent findAllElements takes several seconds and hangs the browser while parsing.
There's only about 3000 XML elements in the file, but with embedded data, is about 2.3 MB.

Same file when using responseXML is about one second.

It's an issue because I can't use the library as is. Trying xml_stream with my own search routines.

Thank you for your report. Can you provide a link to an XML file that shows the issue, so that I can reproduce the problem on my machine?

I committed some improvements (b40dc44) that significantly speed up the XML parser performance. I also updated the pub package (a9ea5c3).

For further improvements I need to see what exact problem you are observing. If necessary, please reopen this issue and provide a test-case (for example in a pull request of https://github.com/renggli/dart-xml/blob/master/test/xml_benchmark.dart).

I'm going to try this right now!
Thanks! BoutySource?

Parsing KML XSD which can be found here:
http://schemas.opengis.net/kml/2.2.0/ogckml22.xsd
Simplistic:
class Schema {
xml.XmlDocument doc;
Schema( String txt_ ){
parse(txt_);
}

bool parse( String xml_ ){
if( xml_ == null || xml_.isEmpty ){
throw "No XML to parse";
}
doc = xml.parse(xml_);
return true;
}
}
void main() {
File kml = new File('../schema/kml/2.2.0/ogckml22.xsd');
String kmlSchemaTxt = kml.readAsStringSync( encoding:UTF8 );
Stopwatch stopwatch = new Stopwatch()..start();
Schema kmlschema = new Schema( kmlSchemaTxt );
print( "${stopwatch.elapsed}");
}

Output:
0:00:00.143166

Which I'm quite happy with.
