Interesting and useful. Since using short text there will be quite a
bit of overhead from executing the regexp though.
Did you also check for correctness? It's easy to make a regexp engine
that's fast but wrong. And do they possibly run out of memory and
crash? I rewrote the original Vim regexp engine to be iterative instead
of recursive to handle that.
I need some tests to do profiling, I could perhaps use some of this.
