There seems some interest currently in alternatives/improvements to Spirit,
so I thought I'd mention Hapy:
   http://hapy.sourceforge.net/

I've used it on a couple of projects and found it as easy to use as Spirit
but much faster to compile. I don't know about run-time speed comparison: in
all my spirit/hapy projects the use of the data takes much more time than
the parsing of it.
