parse svg with java or javascript?

[cw]

if we just point the webview at a URL we'll have to either parse the SVG with javascript on the already loaded document, or use java to parse the document again, likely with another http request.

which is the best approach?

java - load svg document and cache to device, then load local file to webview

javascript - load webview via url, then maybe expose dom to java for caching/parsing
