Re^7: Efficient matching with accompanying data

it seems that trie optimization brakes for more than 10000 alternatives.

Seems the goalposts have changed slightly since it was first implemented, it was between 12,000 and 13,000 back then .

For most of my stuff, that limit is way to low to consider.

It'd be nice if you'd include the results of your benchmark in your post.

actually it breaks around 15000 for me, I think it depends on the total length of the regex-string. 15000 alternatives: `lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~/B/PL/PM/buk_trie$ perl buk_trie.pl chapter2.txt 481Finding 1027 words (of 5038) took 0.041860 seconds using a hash 482Finding 923 words took 0.025128 seconds using a trie(via regex engi +ne)` [download] 15500 alternatives `lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~/B/PL/PM/buk_trie$ perl buk_trie.pl chapter2.txt 481Finding 1078 words (of 5038) took 0.040339 seconds using a hash 482Finding 958 words took 10.042522 seconds using a trie(via regex eng +ine)` [download] changing buffer-size didn't help. `This is perl, v5.10.0 built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi` [download] > For most of my stuff, that limit is way to low to consider. well as already stated by AnoMonk, you can split the set into different regexes with < 10000 alternatives. Regexes can do things which hashes can't... Cheers Rolf ( addicted to the Perl Programming Language)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
