No, just an instance I prepared earlier. I'll try the compile option at the next chance, but research hints it will only produce a small improvement. > For Spans, are you thinking of > https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/regex-performance-improvements-in-net-5/ > (where they utilise spans internally)? > I read Toub's April 2020 article. He's talking about .NET 5 so I guessed all the enhancements he's talking about would be in .NET 6 I'm using now. Yes, confusingly, his Aug 2021 article on .NET 6 does not mention Regex performance. More searching suggests that the Span overloads have not made it into Regex yet. Damn! *Greg* P.S. Toub's *Impact* counts are 8 in the early article and a staggering 41 in the latter. >
