Well, another problem is potentially huge memory consumption in streaming scenarios - when input document is represented as forward-only I/O stream. While SAX and XmlReader in .NET handle it very well, NE parser would need to buffer the entire XML document.

  Thanks for the posting.

  
  NE parsing is more like DOM than SAX, and isn't primiarily intended for streaming parsing, for the reason you point out.
