That is a good article for starters but it doesn't seem to touch on the newer Streaming API for XML Parsing which is part of the Java 6 API in the javax.xml.stream.* packages and offers another alternative to SAX and DOM. It offers the speed of SAX parsing with the manipulation capabilities of DOM but without DOM's huge memory footprint. Just Google for 'Java streaming xml parsing api' or something and I'm sure you can find multiple tutorials for it.

This is an old thread but now to access the link above it is required to enter a drawing which at the least requires submission of a valid email address. I didn't do that.
