I would say it depends on how big the dataset is. If the data is small and/or you have to slurp it all into memory anyway, then I like the simplicity of just keeping it as XML. But if the data is arbitrarily large and/or you don't want it all in memory at once, then going to sqlite becomes somewhat of a necessity.

I'm getting an xml datafeed every so often that should populate data for my iphone app. I could keep this file local and read every time the app starts up and update it every so often from the web. I could also parse the xml into a sqlite db and use the sqlite db as the datasource for the app. I just wonder if anyone has any opinion on how best to persist the data.
