There probably isn't much, except that (DEFINE) makes it clear exactly
what is happening. PCRE does compile slightly different code, but I
don't think it would make any difference to the performance. (The Perl
documentation says
Similar in spirit to "(?{0})" but more efficient.
so it looks as if it does make a difference in Perl.
