According to this spec :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemxmlxmlreaderclassreadattributevaluetopic.asp

"
Return Value
true if there are nodes to return.
false if the reader is not positioned on an attribute node when the initial 
call is made or if all the attribute values have been read.
"

So the implementation is not working properly....

The problem is this :
        while(r.ReadAttributeValue())

ReadAttributeValue never returns false. I have done a trace of the execution, 
the program is constantly copying arrays.
Can you please look into the ReadAttributeValue function and see if anything is 
wrong there. What is the specification of the function? under what conditions 
does it return 0?
