I’ve rebenchmarked the new heuristic patch, We still have the previous improvements ranging from 15% to 30%. For regressions i see at maximum 3% or 4% in the worst case, so this is solid.
I'm also trying the idea of doing SIMD inside quotes with prefix XOR using carry less multiplication avoiding the slow path in all cases even with weird looking input, but it needs to take into consideration the availability of PCLMULQDQ instruction set with <wmmintrin.h> and here we go, it quickly starts to become dirty OR we can wait for the decision to start requiring x86-64-v2 or v3 which has SSE4.2 and AVX2.
