that actually doesn't surprise me too much

regex matches are VERY expensive, especially ones as specific as you were doing.

Well. I'll let it run for a while in my staging environment but I'm seeing, 
even with some nested field() calls, an overall drop in average per instance 
CPU utilization of almost half. That is definitely a huge improvement.

I'll post more as the test runs.

Quick Question. Which is more impactful to performance?

set $!session  = re_extract($msg,
'^.*[\\^][0-9.-]+\\|[A-Z]+\\|[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\\|[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+\\|[a-zA-
Z0-9]*\\|([a-zA-Z0-9._-]*)[~]*[a-zA-Z0-9._-]*\\|.*',
0, 1, 'N/A');

or

set $!session  = field(field(field($msg, 94, 2), 124, 6), 126, 1);

I'm going to do some testing, but if I can get a quick response here
it could save me some time. I would expect the re_extract function to
be, but I'm not familiar with how the code for field works so I can't
make that assumption.


That's my assumption as well, but I may be wrong.

Thanks!
