> It seems {{InvokeHelper}} cannot cache the results of {{Pattern#compile}} at all when running embedded Groovy scripts.
> When this is combined with regular expressions and a somewhat large number scripts, there is a very large hit to performance when these scripts need to be constantly run.
> Using Java 8u40. and close to 10k scripts, the same 10k scripts are properly cached and reused but {{Pattern}} objects are constantly re-compiled.
> I am using a {{ConcurrentHashMap}} from a custom implementation of {{InvokeHelper}} at the moment to workaround the problem but having a supported way of controlling this behavior would be welcomed.
