Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-7465:
--------------------------------------------

Maybe you could share just the regexp :)

But, if you do repeat the test w/ Lucene, then try to use this patch if 
possible (just the {{XXXRunAutomaton}} changes), because it optimizes for code 
points < 256.  Or, if your data is all non-ascii, then don't bother using this 
patch :)

> Add a PatternTokenizer that uses Lucene's RegExp implementation

> I think there are some nice benefits to a version of PatternTokenizer that 
> uses Lucene's RegExp impl instead of the JDK's:
>   * Lucene's RegExp is compiled to a DFA up front, so if a "too hard" RegExp 
> is attempted the user discovers it up front instead of later on when a 
> "lucky" document arrives
>   * It processes the incoming characters as a stream, only pulling 128 
> characters at a time, vs the existing {{PatternTokenizer}} which currently 
> reads the entire string up front (this has caused heap problems in the past)
>   * It should be fast.
> I named it {{SimplePatternTokenizer}}, and it still needs a factory and 
> improved tests, but I think it's otherwise close.
> It currently does not take a {{group}} parameter because Lucene's RegExps 
> don't yet implement sub group capture.  I think we could add that at some 
> point, but it's a bit tricky.
> This doesn't even have group=-1 support (like String.split) ... I think if we 
> did that we should maybe name it differently 
> ({{SimplePatternSplitTokenizer}}?).
