Does that mean that you use XML as a database to store data and make
queries, or that you store your information as XML in a database (as
MySQL)?
I ask that because I'm writting a little program that will make
queries over a 1500 entries database, with very simple queries. I need
an answer in 1 or 2 seconds. I'm using SQLite now, but i wanted
something that depends as little as possible of external dependencies
(as a database).
