Indexing the original serial XML (say at "chapter" level) is one solution; it's essentially equivalent to my approach, which has been to split the original XML (say at "chapter" level) and store the "chapters" as separate linked XML documents. What I mean by "chapter" is typically 1-10Kb, or alternatively, a chunk of text such that the user doesn't mind pressing "Next" when he's got to the end of it.
