alright, don't forget to mention it on this list if you don't mind, i
find reading all the cvs logs boring ;)
In stock 21.4.9, (setq lookup-syntax-properties nil) may be enough.
In TraverseSchema.java from Xerces (thank you very much for that,
Stef!) that setq exhausts the speedups for me. In fact, a stock 21.4.9
build with all error-checking turned on indents reportSchemaError as
fast as a 21.4.9 Windows [3] with all error-checking off! But the
stock build is 6 times as slow with (setq lookup-syntax-properties t).
aha, lemme try that
... WOW!
ok, in my code it's also as fast as 21.4.9 Windows [3], both with error
checking (right, now let's remove this error checking now ;)
alright, now i'm happy in both cases :)
thanks both of you for a working solution.
i remember someone mentioning that syntax-table thing being used by one
language, possibly perl ?
that lookup-syntax-properties is global, not buffer-local, right ?
