here's an update for cElementTree 0.9.2, btw:

    http://online.effbot.org/2005_01_01_archive.htm#celementtree-xmlfile

on my machine, looping over all elements on a 3400k file takes about twice as long
as it takes to build a tree, but other hand, xmlfile needs no more than 200k memory
to process that file.

and "twice as long to build a tree" still means that it's faster than anything, except
libxml2...
