Well, it is implemente in pure PL/SQL with lots of loops.
If you want fast regex, use Perl.
And, yes of course, 10g. Coming to a desktop near you

Oh. No offense intended. I just wanted to point out that I experienced
exciting new realms of "slowness" using OWA_PATTERNS.

Hi
I think Jonathan already commented on that, but I would have to add =
=3D3D
that
OWA_PATTERN is horribly slow.
I wrote a package generator (generates files using UTL_FILE) using =
=3D3D
patterns,
and I have to say, compared=3D3D20
to Perl regex, it's pure pain.
