Re^2: Efficient regex matching with qr//; Can I do better?

Again, thanks all for your suggestions. To avoid extra work I think I'll first try to upgrade to version 10.0. The only problem is that my system administrator is away for four weeks, so I'll have to wait for that... Frustrating indeed.

I thought I had already written this, weird... Working along moritz' suggestions of using larger regexes, in combination with some additional pre-processing and an upgrade to v.10.0, I am now down to 2.5 minutes on my local machine. Thus I am happy, and you do not need to post any more in this thread for the sake of helping me out. Thanks all of you who wrote here.	[reply]
