How often have you encountered code that adds a timeout to regex matching?

Good point. The number of times is zero. Probably something that should be implemented defensively at the library level. I guess most developers don't realise this can happen (I did not).

		No you don't actually want a regex library that randomly fails when someone runs one of Chris Domas's pathological stall instructions on a different core.
