Slow speed comparing to Python lxml

[gryznar]

I am previous user of lxml. Unfortunatelly parsing using lxml was much faster comparing to html. Maybe there are places to improve it via applying some solutions from lxml? The biggest drop is in creating Document from String, especially for big sites

Recently a PR with some performance improvements has been merged. Can you check if the performance is now more comparable? If not, could you provide an example preferably with the benchmark harness for python as well that demonstrates the difference in speed so I can take a look into it?

Yeah, I'll try it in free time. Thanks for the improvements!
