[lxml-dev] etree.parse hangs with a lot of parallel requests

Eventually it turned out that I'm working fine without DTD. So,  
setting no_network = True and load_dtd = False really solved the  
problem. The parsing time is almost insignificant now.

To be frank, I find that out by accident. I encountered problems with  
machines carrying DTD and every parsing began to took 60 sec. I was  
very quick to disable DTD and feeled relief  to see it working and it  
working fast :)

Nevertheless, thanks for the advice!

If you're interested, here it goes:
http://beta.rambler.ru/srch?query=python+lxml&searchtype=web
This is a search engine frontend, xml\xslt based, everything is  
carried via lxml.

Cheers,
Dmitri
