Using the stream interface should consume less memory, and in theory the
parsing would start immediately (whereas the feed could still be
downloading), so it could be faster, as well. I doubt you'd notice the
difference, however.
Feel free to drop into #node-feedparser on freenode if you want to continue
to chat -- this is probably not of general interest to the rest of the
group. :)
