How to write (big) XML to a file in C#?

Question

Folks,

Please, what\'s a good way of writing really big XML documents (upto say 500 MB) in C# .NET 3.5? I\'ve had a bit of search around, and can\'t seem to find anythin

Answer 1

Did you consider compressing it before writing it to disk? With XML you can reach more than 10 times compressing and even more. it will probably take you less time to compress the file and write the compressed version than to read the whole 500Mb version.
