XML is a format often used for exchanging information. However, XML is not appropriate to exchange large amounts of data in a single file, as it takes a lot of CPU and memory to parse and process the information in the whole document at once.

This class provides a different approach to extract chunks of information for large XML files by reading the files in small chunks and extract the chunks into individual strings before parsing.
