> The joni regex engine (https://github.com/jruby/joni), a Java port of Oniguruma regexp library done by the JRuby project, is:
> - MIT licensed
> - Designed to work with byte[] arguments instead of String
> - Capable of handling UTF8 encoding
> - Regex syntax compatible
> - Interruptible
> - *About twice as fast as j.u.regex*
> - Has JRuby's jcodings library as a dependency, also MIT licensed
