interested if you could make a small, self-contained test program to use
as a benchmark.
The 'test' is just
/////////////////
import std.xml2;
void main()
{
string xmlPath = r"test.xml";
auto document = DocumentBuilder.LoadFile(xmlPath, false, false);
}
/////////////////
It's xmlp that does all the work (and takes all the time).
I'll see about generating a simple test file, but basically:
50000 top level nodes
each one has 6 child nodes
each node has a single attribute, and the child nodes each have a short
text value.
Parsing the file with DMD 2.057 takes ~25 seconds
Parsing the file with DMD 2.058(Git) takes ~6.1 seconds
Parsing the file with DMD 2.058, with the GC disabled during the
LoadFile call, takes ~2.2 seconds.
For comparison, MSXML6 takes 1.6 seconds to load the same file.
