Thank you, I'm glad that you enjoyed the article! Regarding computed and simple goto I'd like to reference our early article discussing the parser in standard goto https://natsys-lab.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-fast-finite-state-machine-for-http.html https://natsys-lab.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-fast-finite-stat... . My recent talk at scale https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/17x/presentations/fast-http-string-processing-algorithms https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/17x/presentations/fast-... (watch videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQc4er8ng64&feature=youtu.be&t=25501 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQc4er8ng64&feature=youtu.be... and slides at http://www.tempesta-tech.com/research/http_str.pdf http://www.tempesta-tech.com/research/http_str.pdf ) discusses the parser with the compiler extensions. We also found hat Ragel parser generator (using the goto state machine) generated somewhat faster large state machines than Bison (switch-drived state machine). However, as pointed out in the SCALE talk goto works better only on big enough state machines.
