I'm guessing, but I suspect the pattern is just too big. If you run it
under pcretest with the -i option you get:
Capturing subpattern count = 0
Options: anchored caseless extended multiline dotall
No first char
Need char = 'a' (caseless)
Subject length lower bound = 8428
No starting char list
JIT study was not successful
If you make it a lot shorter, JIT does compile it.
Thanks. I use many giant patterns. How can I be sure that JIT can work
with they? What conditions are? Maximum pattern length in bytes or some
else?
I found no docs about this silent JIT-off.
Can you clarify this please?
