May I ask, have you ever considered a possibility using something like OCaml? As far as I heard it's quite convenient to use ML-family languages for writing parsers and that OCaml generates pretty well-performing code while being more like "Python-expressive" than "C-expressive".

Ah, yes, I remember it from seeing a while ago, when you just released it. Never looked in the code, though. Didn't recognize it was you, until this post, however. =)
