I made some Cocoa Frameworks with open-source based Objective-C program to
parse XML into NSDictionary.
I can parse a large XML file (80MB) by calling the framework from
AppleScriptObjC.
It tooks about 50 seconds to parse without crashing on my environment (MacBook
Pro Retina 2012, Core i7 2.6GHz).
