Thanks. At least that means it's not a local problem. So perhaps it's an issue with pcre's build with VS 2010. Googling around, I didn't find much related to pcre and VS 2010. These MSDN pages suggest the default stack size (with VS 2012, I suppose it's the same for 2010) is 1 MB: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tdkhxaks.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8cxs58a6.aspx So I suppose this problem is expected with Visual Studio and pcre. But I'd expect it to be the same for 2012 then ... -- Johan
