Geoff, for me it's real honor that you, well-known creator of Hyperscan, paid attention to what we are doing. We truly respect all the prior work in this field (Hyperscan, RE2, Rust, etc), so different benchmarks will be available. However, we all need to keep in mind that Nevod operates on words, not characters, and Nevod targets large rule decks (1000-100000 patterns). So, we don't compete in the field of individua…
I don't think I'm all that well-known. :-) Staying away from streaming is a good idea for a lot of designs. We all lost a lot of our hair making streaming work in Hyperscan, and it was often the thing suppressing easier optimizations. Or at least we would have to have a separate approach for streaming and block mode; not exactly great s/w engineering. Word-based approaches are interesting. So is large scale. Hypersca…
Re: Show HN: Nevod is easier and faster than RegExp
#81Based on what you are saying I'm concluding that we are on the right path. Again, thank a lot for all the valuable feedback and advice!
