Subject: Libxml SAX parser?

Hello,

I need to read XML documents from an open network socket.
Rexml's Document.parse_stream works fine, but is a tad slow
for this application.

I installed libxml, but while there is a wrapper for the SAX
parser, I haven't found a way to set the callbacks. This limits
it's usefulness severly. It isn't in the TODO file either.
Have I missed something here ?

None if the DOM parsers seem to have an option: Stop when you
have a valid (complete) document, which would be just what I
need.

Any suggestions ? (apart from don't use XML).

Cheers,

Han Holl
