Eg in SKYRiX we parse a database model stored in a plist at startup.
This plist is about 200K and startup (and more important: memory
consumption) is significantly reduced by using a fast plist parser
without -autorelease.
(indeed I have modified the libFoundation parser in the same way).
Large plists are not unusual for EOF like applications. Eg they are also
useful for importing/exporting tables.
