Description

Hi,

I'd like to add new method to RegExp in plugin/pcre. The main reason is to allow better performance in some scenarios. From pcre manual:

If a compiled pattern is going to be used several times, it is worth

spending more time analyzing it in order to speed up the time taken for
matching. The function pcre_study() takes a pointer to a compiled pat-
tern as its first argument. If studying the pattern produces additional
information that will help speed up matching, pcre_study() returns a
pointer to a pcre_extra block, in which the study_data field points to
the results of the study.

Please apply or grant me access to that part of sources ;-)
