Speeding up creation of NSDictionary from XML?

Question

Hi , I need to speeed up the creation of NSDictionary from XML(of size larger thar 25 Mb),Is there any way to do this.. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Make smaller files. Other than that, no, there is nothing you can do to make that method any faster.

If the size of the plists is unavoidable, you can move the loading and processing into operations or onto an explicit thread to avoid blocking your UI while you and your user wait.
