Subject: [ruby-core:94236] [Ruby master Bug#8287] Regexp performance issue

Issue #8287 has been updated by jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans).

Backport deleted (1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN)
Status changed from Open to Rejected

From the general problem statement, and looking at the regexp's nested use of `*` and `+` along with `\g`, this regexp probably exhibits exponential backtracking. See https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/2.6.0/Regexp.html#class-Regexp-label-Performance.  You would need to fix the regexp to avoid the backtracking, possibly using `(?>` for some capture groups. I can't confirm that because as displayed, the regexp is not valid Ruby code (I'm guessing a previous Redmine update broke the syntax used).
