+hyperscan (A high-performance multiple regex matching library)
+
+Hyperscan is a high-performance multiple regex matching library. It
+follows the regular expression syntax of the commonly-used PCRE library,
+yet functions as a standalone library with its own API written in C.
+
+Hyperscan uses hybrid automata techniques to allow simultaneous matching
+of large numbers (up to tens of thousands) of regular expressions, as
+well as matching of regular expressions across streams of data.
