Hi,
I am not sure I totally understand your mail. You have a string, which length is 1G, and you want to display the first 1000 characters, and replace literals (characters?) with another symbol, is that correct? Why do you need pcre for this purpose? A simple loop which checks every character could do that, and it would be much faster. Or you can simply pass a length of 1000 to stop pcre after the 1000th character.
