I should add however. I'm always surprised when I use VHLL like Perl.
Perl
regex is pretty fast for its flexibility. Given the fact that Perl is
Open Source,
I'd expect this DMCAscript thing to be as fast as Perl is (or at least
within a magnitude).

I mean, you expect abstractions upon abstractions to make things much
slower. But it is hard to beat Perl regex in speed and reliability.

Actually, that's kind of why I said Perl would be better -- ECMAScript
is typically only interpreted, not compiled, plus it has substantially
fewer features. You commonly refer to ECMAScript as JavaScript. :)
