i benchmarked the binmode variant against the utf8 open variant down here. i made an xml file with 100 lines and 32000 ü's (utf8) in each line ((P)CDATA). the below script did it in 0.20 seconds while the 'use utf8; / binmode' method take about 17.5 seconds.
unfortunately perl crashes when i give a filehande to the parser while using the 'use open qw/:std :utf8/;' method when the file gets big. the 'use utf8; / binmode' method takes about 35 seconds when i pass the filehandle to the parser.
output got redirected to /dev/null
#!/usr/bin/perl
use XML::Parser;
#use utf8;
use open qw/:std :utf8/;
$ch = sub {
my ($p, $w) = @_;
# binmode STDOUT, ":encoding(UTF-8)";
print "$w\n";
};
$p = XML::Parser->new(ProtocolEncoding => 'UTF-8');
$p->setHandlers('Char' => $ch);
my $xml = "";
open(F, '< x.xml');
while(<F>) { $xml .= $_; }
$p->parse($xml);
#$p->parse(*F);
close(F);

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
