There's the https://github.com/intel/hyperscan regexp library created over 10 years by algorithm start-up https://branchfree.org/2019/02/28/paper-hyperscan-a-fast-multi-pattern-regex... then bought by Intel and further developed. The development did everything the right way and the lib boasts a lot of optimizations and speedup. Is there a plan to import the lib to Pike? Would it be easy and straight-forward to do so?
