Memory clogging when the route regex is big

[Rigo-m]

Vue-router tokenizer can be very slow when tokenizing complex regexes in the route matcher. Although this is more of a vue-router issue than a nuxt-i18n-micro issue, I was wondering if there was a faster implementation for the localized route (e.g.: checking the correct parameter via a route middleware).

The image above stems from a real-life project, with 70ish locales (en-us, en-gb, it-it etc).

Will try to provide a minimal reproduction, opening the issue to start a discourse

There is an option not to add all locales to the regular expressions. Instead, the module can create a single common regular expression and, when navigating to a page, simply check the locale using a plugin. In theory, this should significantly reduce the routing complexity.

example: /:locale([a-zA-Z-_]{2,2})/subpage

If you can provide a simple example and instructions for testing, I will be able to evaluate the difference in approaches.

I suggest testing the new version, and if everything is fine, we can close the issue.
