      <h2>Regular Expression Performance Comparison</h2>
      <p>
         The following tables provide comparisons between the following regular 
         expression libraries:</p>
      <p><a href="http://research.microsoft.com/projects/greta">GRETA</a>.</p>
      <p><a href="http://www.boost.org/">The Boost regex library</a>.</p>
      <p><a href="http://arglist.com/regex/">Henry Spencer's regular expression library</a>
         - this is provided for comparison as a typical non-backtracking implementation.</p>
      <P>Philip Hazel's <A href="http://www.pcre.org">PCRE</A> library.</P>
      <H3>Details</H3>
      <P>Machine: Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHz PC.</P>
      <P>Compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ version 7.1.</P>
      <P>C++ Standard Library: Dinkumware standard library version 313.</P>
      <P>OS: Win32.</P>
      <P>Boost version: 1.31.0.</P>
      <P>PCRE version: 3.9.</P>
      <P>
         As ever care should be taken in interpreting the results, only sensible regular 
         expressions (rather than pathological cases) are given, most are taken from the 
         Boost regex examples, or from the <a href="http://www.regxlib.com/">Library of 
            Regular Expressions</a>. In addition, some variation in the relative 
         performance of these libraries can be expected on other machines - as memory 
         access and processor caching effects can be quite large for most finite state 
         machine algorithms.</P>
      <H3>Averages</H3>
      <P>The following are the average relative scores for all the tests: the perfect 
         regular expression library&nbsp;would score 1, in practice any small number 
         (say less that 4 or 5) is pretty good.</P>
