What's the best Python XML parser for handling large files efficiently? or How do you choose the righ

lxml is still king for speed, but yeah, memory can be a pain.

Try `ElementTree.iterparse()` with manual cleanup—it’s not *as* fast as lxml, but gentler on RAM.

Or, if you’re feeling fancy, `pyarrow` + `pandas` for tabular XML data.
