Some things about XLinq

Paul Kinlan

I've been experimenting with XLinq in C# 3.0, but I'm not impressed with its querying capabilities. It seems to require loading the entire XML document into memory, which caused problems when I tried to process a 900MB file. A simple XML reader was much more efficient for this task. I'd like to see an XLinq implementation that can process XML data in a streaming fashion, similar to SAX or XmlReader, to avoid memory issues. This would make it more practical for large documents. Perhaps XLinq already supports this, but I haven't found how. For now, it seems best suited for smaller files.
