Re: Parser Performance Question

Would love to replace the Perl code with Python,

Good luck, python has a compatible regexp engine. I don't think it can solve conceptional problems in your code. :)

Python's regexes are not as fully featured as Perl's. For instance, `/i` isn't scoped, it's either enabled or disable for the whole match, IIRC. I would be really really surprised if Perl's regex performance was worse than Python's on a fair comparison. -QM -- Quantum Mechanics: The dreams stuff is made of	[reply] [d/l]
