XML viewer for huge files
Posted: 22 Dec 2007, 11:36Hello!
I have an option to dump the search tree to an XML file. Obiously the file can get very big.
There are many XML viewers that can display the file's tree structure, but most of them load the file into memory at opening. For example, kxmledit can display a file nicely, but loading a 20 M file results in 1 G memory usage. Loading a 50 M file results in a crash due to std::bad_alloc. Similar results with conglomerate.
What I need is an XML viewer with incremental loading. I'm certain that this would be possible with only a modest speed loss. I'd like to avoid trying tens of viewers and I'd like to avoid spending hundreds of dollars for such a simple piece of software.
Can you recommend an XML viewer with incremental loading? If possible freeware and running under Linux, but if not otherwise possible, a $50 Windows application would be acceptable.
Onno
