effbot.org proudly presents release 1.0.4 of the cElementTree library, a fast and very efficient implementation of the ElementTree API, for Python 2.1 and later. On typical documents, it's 15-20 times faster than the Python version of ElementTree, and uses 2-5 times less memory.
cElementTree 1.0.4 is 1.0.2 plus 2.3.5/2.4.2 compatibility fixes for copy/deepcopy (previously released as 1.0.3, as binaries only), new "pi" and "comment" targets in XMLParser, plus the ability to link against "pyexpat" instead of "expat" (this requires Python 2.5). The library is available as C source code, and as Windows installers for recent Python versions.
