Hi Ralf,

(sorry for misspelling your name before)

It is not recommended to allocate a stack in pcre_jit_callback() function since it is an expensive OS operation, and you still need to free it somehow (as you guessed). Its primary purpose is returning the stack for the current thread if you use the same pattern in many different threads. If your program is single threaded, it is better to assign the same stack for all patterns, and not use pcre_jit_callback() at all.

Regards,
Zoltan
