[ruby-core:118147] [Ruby master Misc#20519] Porting regexp to pure ruby?

Issue #20519 has been reported by brightbits (Michael Baldry). ---------------------------------------- Misc #20519: Porting regexp to pure ruby? https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20519 * Author: brightbits (Michael Baldry) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- Would there be any benefit in porting Regexp from Onigmo to a pure ruby implementation that could benefit from YJIT? Compiling a pattern could be translating to a ruby method which would be optimized by YJIT easily. Has this been explored or any work done around this kind of thing, before I take a look in to it more? Many thanks -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
