+REXML was inspired by the Electric XML library for Java, which features an
+easy-to-use API, small size, and speed. Hopefully, REXML, designed with the same
+philosophy, has these same features. I've tried to keep the API as intuitive as
+possible, and have followed the Ruby methodology for method naming and code
+flow, rather than mirroring the Java API.
+
+REXML supports both tree and stream document parsing. Stream parsing is faster
+(about 1.5 times as fast). However, with stream parsing, you don't get access to
+features such as XPath.
