I was trying to stay away from regex as much as possible due to the
overhead? I might be wrong here.

This script will be parsing a lot of requests/sec. Thousands, maybe
more, which it also needs to toss into a DB. I want to try and keep it
as fast as possible. This is tricky when you don't know what you are
doing :). My coding is limited to hammering away at the search box on
php.net until I get a push in the right direction. It's just a hack
from there.

Using phpster's substr suggestion has already sped this up considerably.
