As long as you're using SAX, there should be no theoretical limit to the size of documents that you can process. However, if your app "leaks" memory or if the JVM is very bad at reclaiming memory, then you *might* run into problems. But I don't think you will. DOM, on the other hand, is not a valid solution for documents of the size that you're talking about. -- Andy Clark * [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
