Python uses its own SRE engine. But it is fully compatible with PCRE. Also I tested it with node /Javascript and that produces the same result as in python. It seems like the library does some internal optimization and for the misleading false is because of its detection of catastrophic backtracking. And yes, that's great!

What library does python use for regex? We use libPCRE.

Hi,
I just tried and compared regexs with python and freeswitch and the performance. I found it interesting
1) why in freeswitch the following is false freeswitch@internal> regex sxsssssssssssssssssssssssa|(\S+)+x false 2) (Probably the earlier is the answer) how does freeswitch solve this in less than a second, where in python / node it took around 23 seconds (on my machine).
Thanks.
