No. Thanks, I hadn't considered that possibility. I looked into the slowdown and installed the attached patches, which cause 'grep' to run about as fast on this test case as grep 2.25 (though not as fast as grep 2.26). The main fix is in patch 5. On my platform:

  -------grep version------
   v2.25  v2.26  v2.27 master     locale      command
    1.21   0.69  24.95   1.22     C           grep -w -f pat inp
  207.36 203.15 202.03   1.22     en_US.utf8  grep -w -f pat inp
    1.21   0.69  25.95   0.85     C           grep -w -f pat inp -F
   66.33  68.07  67.21   1.22     en_US.utf8  grep -w -f pat inp -F

All numbers are user+system CPU seconds on Fedora 24 x86-64 (AMD Phenom II X4 910e). "master" means after the attached patches are installed.

Perhaps we can fiddle with the heuristics a bit so that v2.26 is not significantly faster than the master in the C locale.

Subject: [PATCH 1/8] maint: rewrite to avoid some macros

These days, the dangerous powers of C macros are not needed if
constants or functions will do just as well.
* src/grep.c (SEP_CHAR_SELECTED, SEP_CHAR_REJECTED, SEP_STR_GROUP)
(INITIAL_BUFSIZE):
* src/kwset.c (DEPTH_SIZE):
Now constants, not macros.
* src/kwset.c (link): Remove macro. Instead, rename local vars
from 'link' to 'cur'.
(malloc) [GREP]: Remove macro.  All uses of malloc changed to xmalloc.
Omit double-inclusion of xalloc.h.  Do not depend on 'GREP'.
(U): Now a function, not a macro.
* src/kwset.c, src/searchutils.c (NCHAR): Move this macro to ...
* src/system.h: ... here, and make it a constant.

This improves performance a bit.
* src/dfasearch.c, src/kwsearch.c (wordchar):
Remove; now in searchutils.c.
* src/grep.c (main): Call wordinit if -w.
* src/search.h: Adjust.
* src/searchutils.c: Include verify.h.
(word_start): New static var.
(wordchar): Move here from dfasearch.c and kwsearch.c.
(wordinit, wordchars_count, wordchar_next, wordchar_prev):
New functions.
(mb_prev_wc, mb_next_wc): Remove.
All callers changed to use the new functions instead.

Subject: [PATCH 5/8] grep: speed up -wf in C locale

Problem reported by Norihiro Tanaka (Bug#22357#100).
This patch improves the performance on that benchmark on my
platform so that grep is now only about 2x slower than grep 2.26,
which means it is considerably faster than grep 2.25 and earlier.
* src/kwsearch.c (Fexecute):
Use wordchars_size to boost performance for this case.
* src/search.h, src/searchutils.c (wordchars_size): New function.

* src/searchutils.c: Do not include <verify.h>.
(word_start): Remove, replacing with ...
(sbwordchar): New static var.  All uses changed.
(wordchar_prev): Return size_t, not bool, as this generates
slightly better code.  Go back faster if UTF-8.
