in reply to Re: Parser Performance Question
in thread Parser Performance Question
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.
