Add in a regular expression benchmark #1

nikomatsakis commented 8 years ago

It'd be great to have a regular expression benchmark. @burntsushi has suggested the "sherlock" benchmarks from the repository.

nikomatsakis commented 8 years ago

@burntsushi -- do you think you could possibly freeze a snapshot of regex and make some very simple harness where you just run "cargo bench" to get some results?

BurntSushi commented 8 years ago

@nikomatsakis Do you intend for the entire regex crate to be copied into this repo? Or do you want a simple harness with a Cargo.toml that specifies the version of the regex crate to use?

nikomatsakis commented 8 years ago

@BurntSushi the latter would be sufficient, I think -- we use Cargo.lock files in many other places
