in thread How to optimize a regex on a large file read line by line ?

Thank you. Finally some numbers from the same machine.

It's good to see that perl is in the same ballpark with (and sometimes better than) grep+wc.

    I had to run the tests again after booting my Mac and seeing that things were snappier. Perhaps, something was running in the background when testing the first time. Maybe, the virtual disk containing the 2GB file was defragmented between then and now. Am not sure really.

    Timings for the upcoming MCE 1.706 release are included for comparison.
