Did we ever decide *which* regular expression stuff?
I did some benchmarking recently of Vasilli's pure Smalltalk package
vs. the PCRE plugin. It did amazingly well - although it takes about
20x as long to compile a pattern, when actually matching the plugin
only gave about a 3x speed boost. Given that either way we're talking
tens of thousands of matches per second for most input, I'm not sure a
plugin is really necessary.
