I want to create a publishable and useful regex benchmark. I think making a good one is probably impossible. But people are trying anyway, and I think it's possible to at least make one that is better than what exists today when you search for "regex benchmark."

But if I did it, there would be some pretty gross inherent bias, because I'd be the author of one of the regex engines being tested. I don't think that should stop me though, it is good to recognize it and try to mitigate it anyway I can.

Just what I mentioned? One of the regex engines being benchmarked would be my own.

I mean more explicitly. How is your engine biased?

In too many ways to talk about on twitter. But that wasn't the kind of bias I was talking about.
