if you know the exact string your looking for, you can use
substr:
substr($string, "find_me", lenght_of_find_me) = "find_meD";

Hi all,
I remember reading (probably in the Camel book) that
the more $1, $2 and so on you have in a regex the
slower the regex will be executed. It seems any
backreference is taxing performance considerably.
Is there an alternative? What I am trying to do is
isolate some patterns with each line
