When morpho or loadxml.html in metacat upload a xml document to metacat, it allways stores the xml document in a parameter named "doctext". Servelet will store this parameter name and value (xml documentment itself) into a hashtable. And xml document will be stored as a String in memory. So if xml document is big ( huge inline data in eml2 document), it will cause memory problem.

The option we can choose is, using a stream (or reader) connecting client side and servlet directly, rather than transfer the xml document to a string. Our SAX parser wil parse the stream.
