Well, this is purely my intuition/gut feel ... but I suspect that proper xml 
parsing may take too long for your purposes.
One option, if you trust the clients to generate the valid xml, is to write 
your own extremely simplified xml parser.
Code which assumes a standard charset (utf-8 for instance) and assumes that 
it's getting only valid xmlrpc requests could run a LOT faster than a fully 
functional validating parser.
