Subject: | Request to enhance the XML file reading policy of subroutine XML::Mini::Document->fromFile() |

Information:
My understanding from reading the subroutine
XML::Mini::Document->fromFile(), is that:
1. This File reads the entire content of the xml file into Memory.
I suppose that this is the current policy of how the XML::Mini should
read the XML content from the XML file.
Problem:
When the XML file that is being parsed by XML::Mini is very huge, the
entire XML content will be in the memory.
The real problem is when I am parsing more number XML files which are
huge. either in a single perl script or
from various perl scripts and all these perl scripts are using XML::Mini
parser.
Expected Result:
Request is to optimise the XML content reading policy of XML::Mini so
that very less XML content in the memory and not the entire XML
content.
So that XML::Mini become more swisher
