Cache it where? In the zval or the opcode? What if the string changes?
How do you detect that and invalidate the cached position?

You could cache the last position (PHP- and Unicode string index) and
start from there. This assumes that most accesses are (more or less)

the cached version for both directions but even if you can only go
forward it would cover the most common case I guess.
Very simple idea but maybe it helps,
