-# Note that XMLParser::XMLStreamParser is incredible faster (and uses less memory) than any
+# Note XMLParser::XMLStreamParser (xmlparser gem) is faster and uses less memory than any
# other parser and scales well for large documents. For example for a 0.5 MB XML
# document with many tags, XMLParser::XMLStreamParser is ~350 (!) times faster than
# XMLParser::NQXMLTreeParser and still ~18 times as fast as XMLParser::XMLTreeParser.
