One of the most compact XML parsers is Expat by James Clarke. It is used
in a lot of applications including eg Mozilla. It has a memory footprint
of roughly 300 KB as a static library on a Sparc and is still a generic
parser.

A DTD-specific parse could drastically cut this footprint in my opinion.
Has anyone tried writing an XML parser in Flex? What was the memory
footprint?
