It can work well. After reading about it here, I tried it on one of my programs that compares about 1600 words and phrases against a document. My scan time dropped by 30%. This doesn't count the time taken to assemble the regex (about .27 seconds), but since this program runs as a daemon and only has to do the assembly once, it wasn't relevant to me. -- Bowie
