hi all,

first, a public thank you for libpcre! we use it in shedskin, an
experimental (restricted-)python-to-c++ compiler, to implement the standard
python 're' module:

I wasn't sure about the performance of libpcre, until I saw these some
benchmarks comparing re performance among perl, shedskin, java, javascript
and other language implementations:

for patmch1, only perl seem to be able to beat libpcre. for patmch2,
performance is a bit less, but better than perl. so I have to say I'm
impressed and thankful with these results!


thanks again for this awesome library,
mark.
