Compared to what other parser? Does MSXML work on CE?
If yes, how does it compare to Expat?

As far as tips are concerned:
There is not much one can do. Maybe play with compiler options for Expat.
Use larger buffers when calling XML_Parse(Buffer).
Make sure that it isn't your handlers that consume most of the CPU cycles.
