+ ## Output
86
+
87
+ ```
88
+ output/usc/
89
+ title-01/
90
+ README.md
91
+ _meta.json
92
+ chapter-01/
93
+ _meta.json
94
+ section-1.md
95
+ section-2.md
96
+ ```
97

+ ## Performance
101
+
102
+ The full U.S. Code — all 54 titles, 60,000+ sections, ~85 million estimated tokens — converts in about 20-30 seconds on modern machines. SAX streaming keeps memory bounded for even the largest titles (100MB+ XML).
