Wow, very fast; thnx for the pointer.
BUT....the output is very densebloated. Every leaf node is a full hash,
and it tries to preserve comments and attributes. Which is great if the output is going to be turned back into XML...but I just want the values/attributes keyed by their names, so I can create a reasonably compressed piece of JSON to send to the browser.
I'm taking a stab at patching it w/ a "compact" option to achieve that and see how it
behaves.
Update:
Hacked it up to support both a compact mode, and a to_json() method;
Results:
XML::Simple + XML::LibXML + JSON::XS : ~0.6 sec
XML::Bare w/ hacks: 0.04 sec (yes, 40 millisecs)
I think I've found my favorite XML parser 8^))

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
