If you take <stream thenamespace etc><first stanza/> and put it into
first parser and then <second stanza/><third stanza> to second and
</thind stanza> into another, then you get mess and not data. Or do you
reuse it in some other way I do not get?

When a stanza gets split into two chunks, you get even more mess.

This is my code when data come. It is C++ and Qt, but you might see:

source.setData( text );
reader.parseContinue();
