My DOM parser tests compared XML::Simple vs. XML::LibXML in two platforms Solaris 10 and Linux 2.6, all my tests in Solaris ( different documents with different sizes ) showed XML::LibXML was slower than XML::Simple ( It was much slower accessing nodes), as for Linux it was the opposite and XML::LibXML was 8-10x faster than XML::Simple. On the other hand comparing a SAX parser using XML::Parser vs. a DOM parser using XML::LibXML or XML::Simple, expat won in both Solaris and Linux.
Honestly, I haven't tried XML::LibXML::SAX and maybe it is way faster than XML::Parser. This link its a bit outdated but It has some benchmarks. Probably things changed notably since then.
