Here is a C implementation of the two-way algorithm that should work as a drop-in replacement for Objects/stringlib/fastsearch.h. Benchmarking so far, it looks like it is a bit slower in a lot of cases. But it's also a bit faster in a some other cases and oodles faster in the really bad cases. I wonder if there's a good heuristic cutoff (for the needle size?) where the two-way usually becomes better. ---------- Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file49508/fastsearch.h _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41972> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
