I did a lot of testing, and my conclusions were as follows:

1. YAML is much faster than XML.
2. XML::Simple with $ENV{'XML_SIMPLE_PREFERRED_PARSER'} == 'XML::SAX::ExpatXS'
is probably the best option for parsing the XML. XML::LibXML::Simple is a
more-or-less drop-in replacement, but it's not appreciably faster.
