I need to parse potentially huge XML files, so I guess this rules out DOM parsers.
Is out there any good lightweight SAX parser for C++, comparable with TinyXML on footprint? The structure of XML is very simple, no advanced things like namespaces and DTDs are needed. Just elements, attributes and cdata.
I know about Xerces, but its sheer size of over 50mb gives me shivers.
Thanks!

DOM Parser is faster than SAX Parser. Best for the larger sizes of files.
Fast XML Parser (FXP)is the JS library which validate and parse a XML syntactically without applying the rules of XSD. It has completed it's one year with 85k Downloads and 175+ github stars.
If you are using C, then you can use LibXML from the Gnome project. You can choose from DOM and SAX interfaces to your document, plus lots of additional features that have been developed over years. If you really want C++, then you can use libxml++, which is a C++ OO wrapper around LibXML.
The library has been proven again and again, is high performance, and can be compiled on almost any platform you can find.

I like ExPat
http://expat.sourceforge.net/
It is C based but there are several C++ wrappers around to help.
