One of the lovely things about XML is that it's slow to parse, and for 
the most part, you have to parse the whole thing. It's possible to 
parse it backwards, of course, but it wouldn't be very pretty (and 
you'd miss the starting <log>).

That said, most of my logs are small enough that parsing them shouldn't 
be a problem.
