Seems worth trying a range from 1 to N where you play around with N to find your optimum performance/functionality tradeoff. {1,20} is like '+' but clamps at 20. select regexp_replace( repeat('someone,one,one,one,one,one,one,', 60), '(?<=^|,)([^,]+)(?:,\1){1,20}(?=$|,)', '\1', -- replacement 'g' -- apply globally (all matches) ); - Miles Elam
