Subject: [pcre-dev] [Bug 2124] Regular expression causes endless? looping in pcre2_match_8

--- Comment #1 from Philip Hazel <ph10@???> ---
In order to try to reproduce this with pcre2test, I need to know what the
subject line is that was being matched against that regex, and whether it is
expected to match. It may be that you just have a very large search tree that
is taking a very long time to search. This is the most common cause of reports
of "looping".
On the other hand, your regex doesn't look pathological at first sight.
