I have a XML parser (SAX and DOM) which is written in C and is very fast. It
runs on z/OS, but on other platforms, too (Linux, Windows, OS/2). On z/OS, I
built an interface to make calls from PL/1 possible, and the routines for the
SAX events can also be PL/1 routines. The same is of course possible for
ASSEMBLER; the PL/1 interface (or the C interface) should in my opinion be
usable by HLASM without any investment.

I recently observed that the storage management which is built into this parser
outperforms standard malloc/free of LE (it is optimized especially to deal with
many allocations of small areas of storage).

If you're interested, please contact me offline to discuss further details.

Kind regards

Bernd
