http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1049 --- Comment #11 from Cameron Kaiser <[email protected]> 2011-11-13 22:34:11 --- Created an attachment (id=514) --> (http://bugs.exim.org/attachment.cgi?id=514) JSPCRE for SpiderMonkey (for illustration only) Zoltan directed me to this bug, since I was working on bolting sljit to SpiderMonkey (Mozilla's JS engine). We're trying to get PowerPC working properly with their new JaegerMonkey compiler, but the fallback is to continue with the old TraceMonkey compiler and use PCRE's sljit mode to accelerate regexes instead of relying on the horribly slow YARR interpreter. This does work, but involves quite a bit of conversion overhead. Zoltan tells me that \u and \x are now supported in JS mode, which helps a lot, but we still do a lot of slinging back and forth from "UTF-16" (UCS-2) to UTF-8, and a UTF-16 native mode would be fabulous even if it were the not-really-UTF-16 mode that the WebKit PCRE is using. I attached jspcre.cpp as an example. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.exim.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
