I did the same, and it does not help in my case. FWIW, the regexp I'm
matching is:
<pre .*?>(.*?)</pre>

(yes, the production system has already been fixed to use a smarter
regexp that solves the same problem)

The text is about 180Kb. PostgreSQL takes ~40 seconds without the
patch, ~36 seconds with it, to extract the match from it. Perl takes
0.016 seconds.
