In that case, I should have been able to do something like:
matches=match(input,ctr);
l_cnt = matches.length();
I'm curious what this length() does as I have no length for RegexMatch
in the API :)
But I only get length=1, and so I'm a bit concerned that greedy is not
really working. In fact, it is about 3x faster to just run the second
piece of code, so I think something must be wrong...

Yes, I should have typed matches.captures.length. It is always returning
1, even though the desciption indicates the "g" flag should create a
match object that contains all the submatches.
Captures is a range of submatches as in "(a)(b)(c)" has 3 sub matches +
1 whole match == 4.
