in reply to Multiple Regex's on a Big Sequence

Combiming the patterns looks easy, And if you need to run diffence code for differnt patterns put them in a hash with the pattern as the key and the coderef as the value. 
use Regexp::Assemble;
my @search_patterns = ( 'CACGTG', 'GTGCAC' );

my $ra = Regexp::Assemble->new;
$ra->add( @search_patterns );

while ( $seq =~ /$ra/g ) {
  ...
}

    Ahh, never heard of this module, that's cool! The one thing I should have mentioned is that I'm on a multi-processor system so a reg-ex or index approach might be more parallelizable. I think I should benchmark all the options though.
