-GNU grep is based on a fast lazy-state deterministic matcher (about
-twice as fast as stock Unix egrep) hybridized with a Boyer-Moore-Gosper
-search for a fixed string that eliminates impossible text from being
-considered by the full regexp matcher without necessarily having to
-look at every character.  The result is typically many times faster
-than Unix grep or egrep.  (Regular expressions containing back-references
-will run more slowly, however.)
