Well, if I still worked on Hyperscan, this would be my "what am I, a potted plant?" moment. I think Cloudflare is pretty determined to avoid x86-only implementations of anything, though.

It's entertaining to see people making the same mistakes that have been widely known about in network security well before there was Hyperscan, RE2, etc.




There are always those potted plant moments. For some reason regular expressions / regex implementations seem to always be in that hole.
