To be fair to non-Javas, the java version is using Java code because Java sucks at calling out to faster languages.

  There's JNI that exists now. And Project Panama will be a big improvement.

  Oh yes, that Python code looks so idiomatic: https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/program/regexredux-python3-2.html https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...

    regex=PCRE2.pcre2_compile_8(pattern, c_size_t(len(pattern)), c_uint32(0), byref(c_int()), byref(c_size_t()), None) As far as FFI goes, I would say this looks amazingly simple.

    Can't comment on that but why are these people putting spaces after commas (correct) and not to the left and right of the assignment sign = ? It's so weird to read a=b

    That’s very straightforward translation of C code using pcre to Python using ctypes. It doesn’t look great because the ugliness isn’t wrapped in a library. But Python ctypes definitely isn’t hard to use. It is unsafe as hell though.

    Alternatively see Python #1 https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/program/regexredux-python3-1.html https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/...
