I have a 150 MB XML file which is used as DB in my project. Currently I'm using XmlReader to read content from it. I want to know if it is better to use XmlReader or LINQ to XML for this scenario.

Note that I'm searching for an item in this XML and display search result, so it can take a long time or just a moment.
