Comparing large xml files

Question

could anyone assist me with this. I need to compare two beefy xml files 40mb each (ok not that beefy), but notepad++ croaks on this. Can anyone suggest something that will help (windows only).

I read a similar thread: Text editor to open big (giant, huge, large) text files

but this only talks about opening large files. Comparing and opening are 2 very different animals. Can anyone suggest anything that will help

Thanks Craig

I always use DiffMerge or ExamDiff (Pro version) for my Diff needs. I haven't tried them with files larger than 2 MB, but you might want to give them a try.
