Yep, exactly. I used to put client devices on a segregated network and tunnel their traffic out to pfSense running on a cheap cloud box somewhere. Worked well. (I should say that intentional monitoring of my private comms was never a concer

I'm not sure it's _so_ bad, in practice? If you dig +trace url.rw, you can see that the NS record for url.rw is held on ns-rw.afrinic.net, pch.ricta.org.rw, ns1.ricta.org.rw, ns3.ricta.org.rw and fork.sth.dnsnode.net. It's tr

What an incredibly helpful reply. Thank you! It sounds like either plain ripgrep, or ripgrep+hyperscan, is pretty much exactly what I'm looking for. Next time I have this problem, I'll certainly be reaching for it.

I occasionally find myself wanting to search a data stream using a large-ish set (a few tens or hundreds of thousands) of regexes. This is very slow with a backtracking engine like PCRE, but ought to be pretty fast with a DFA-based engine l
