thanks a lot for the quick answer and for the URL. Glad to discover that pyRXP 
has not disappeared :-)

BTW in the project I'm involved in we use it as a part of one of our core 
library, and we're experiencing a strange behaviour: as part of our tools we 
instantiate an instance of the parser, and we parse thousands of snippets of 
XML, one at a time via the parse method of this same pyRXP.Parser instance. 
We keep the same instance in order to avoid latency in the initialization. 
However, this procedure is getting slower and slower each time a snipped is 
parsed. Could it be that pyRXP has a memory leak or is keeping permanent 
information although these will not be used in the next snippet parsing?

Best regards,
	Samuele
