 >>Does this mean that Frontier doesn't have a callback mode? How do you 
deal with huge documents, then?

First, thanks for the explanation. It helps me understand what the issues 
are, and what they are not.

Frontier's parser does not have a callback mode. It generates a tree in our 
object database, and then the script code can walk the tree and do whatever 
it wants. It's the same thing, and my guess is that a real-world Frontier 
application would probably perform no better or worse than a Python or Perl 
one.
