Did you try my YAX parser?
it took 11 sec to parse and tree build on a 500 KIII.

stream _ ReadStream on: (FileDirectory default readOnlyFileNamed:
'a_and_c.xml') contentsOfEntireFile.

To achieve your goal do(with the extra file-in "desc.cs" to yax):
result descendants: 'SPEAKER') collect: [:each | each key -> each value
contentString]
