I just did a quick Google search for "python minidom benchmark" and found 
these:

http://www.opensourcetutorials.com/tutorials/Server-Side-Coding/Python/xml-matters/page2.html

http://effbot.org/zone/celementtree.htm#benchmarks

http://blog.ianbicking.org/2008/03/30/python-html-parser-performance/

Note that all three authors risk being biased, but given how similar the 
results are, I tend to believe them.
