I downloaded Wikipedia the other day - a 4gb unzips to a 14gb "xml" file....

The xml is pretty sparse, just a few wrapper elements, its mostly wiki
markup like [[ ]] to indicate a link for example.

If there is an upconversion tool or transform you could mark it up and
put in an xml database and then do something with it... not sure what
yet, but as an academic exercise at least it would be quite
interesting.
