New submission from Tal Weiss: All tests I ran comparing timing of the new regex module relative to the old re module showed significant slower performance. I'm attaching test code with regular expressions from our production server. Tested on Python 2.7, 64 bit Linux + 64 bit Windows 7. regex #0 match success = 0.16530585289 seconds re #0 match success = 0.0977821350098 seconds regex #0 match failure = 0.460994958878 seconds re #0 match failure = 0.249558925629 seconds regex #1 match success = 0.0802597999573 seconds re #1 match success = 0.0348429679871 seconds regex #1 match failure = 0.224385023117 seconds re #1 match failure = 0.104065895081 seconds regex #2 match success = 0.0307199954987 seconds re #2 match success = 0.0200390815735 seconds regex #2 match failure = 0.0253899097443 seconds re #2 match failure = 0.0161480903625 seconds
