> I'm creating an umbrella ticket to improve regular expression performance for string expressions. Right now our use of regular expressions is inefficient for two reasons:
> 1. Java regex in general is slow.
> 2. We have to convert everything from UTF8 encoded bytes into Java String, and then run regex on it, and then convert it back.
> There are libraries in Java that provide regex support directly on UTF8 encoded bytes. One prominent example is joni, used in JRuby.]
