Wow, thanks for all the replies, everyone! This is super helpful.
I tried lxml based on your suggestions, and it’s definitely faster than BeautifulSoup. The syntax is a bit more complex, but I’m getting the hang of it.
I also gave `html5lib` a shot for messy HTML, and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the tip!
One quick follow-up: has anyone used Scrapy for *parsing html with python*? I’m curious if it’s worth learning for larger projects.
Cheers!
