The text source is not very big. However I implement transcoding from one language to another and I do an VERY large amount of search and replace.
I think I have quite optimized my LC code but transcoding can take 5 minutes to do, and I need the whole process to chase unexpected bugs. This is using the forward search (offset) most of the time. Using a standalone app takes the time down to 4 minutes, which is not a sufficient gain for my usage.
