How to match regular expressions faster than Perl (swtch.com)

Old, but good. I've done my own benchmarks when I noticed some of our users seeing 1-2 second delays on their custom regular expressions. It did the same complex queries in milliseconds.

I highly recommend this, especially for the next revisions of Perl, Python, etc, etc.
