It is based on the popular PCRE library. . Some possible advantages over the regular expression support built into PostgreSQL: * richer pattern language, more familiar to Perl and Python programmers * complete Unicode support * saner operators and functions Some disadvantages: * no repeated matching ('g' flag) * no index optimization
