The best solutions there went from regexes to custom parsers/field
extractors.  I wonder whether your excellent SAR is applicable, or
Dmitry Kazakov's SNOBOL matching?  Here's what top Python things look
like:

They use a Python toolkit replacing regexen, which is faster:

Apparently regexen are not needed and something custom/simpler will
do, like splitting lines in Ada -- what's the fastest way to do that?
