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.
