massive xml docs

...and I'd advise staying away from XPath as well. It's gotten
splintered into too many proprietary spinoffs.

XQuery is much easier to read (IMO) and is pretty standardized these
days. The only thing you can't do with it is update a document.

To my mind, a 100MB xml document is poorly designed. It should be
segmented into a hierarchy of smaller documents or exported to a
database. But nobody asked me.
