Parse1 is here always at least 30% faster than Parse2.

I'm seeing the same thing, only more so. I searched for "the" in a 424K text file:

parse1 = 11 ms
parse2 = 111 ms

Hmmm.... It may be that Mark Waddingham was wrong in the guidance he gave earlier about Unicode vs memcopy, but I wonder if there may be something else here.

Were you using the same text I tested with, the Gutenberg text file for "Call of the Wild"?
