Maximum Perf. Minimum Size XML Parser (MXP1) is a Java-based non-validating pull parser that implements the Common Application Programming Interface (API) for XML Pull Parsing specification. In a pull-based parser, the processor is in control of when it asks for the next event and it is not required to determine its own internal processing state before it can do anything with the event.

MXP1 was designed for minimal footprint (less than 20k) and maximum speed (it claims up to 20% better performance than the nearest competiton) and is suited for fast serialization/deserialization of Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) -based XML objects. MXP1 Java platform support ranges from Java 2 Micro Edition Mobile Information Device Profile (J2ME MIDP) devices to Java 2, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) servers parsing multiple concurrent XML streams.

The MXP1 download package is distributed under an open source, Apache-like license.
