This is just a nit but all of those expressions are compiled at startup time before using any of them.

    It's a fair nit, guv'nor. What I meant was compiled from something other than perl regex literals, like a text config file or xml or something else. I'll update the root node to make it clearer. Cheers.

      See /o is dead, long live qr//! for more than you ever wanted to know about when regular expressions are compiled and how you can control that.
