Identifying the precise match locations for parenthesized subexpressions is a fairly expensive task given the way our regexp engine works, both at regexp compile time (where we must create an optimized NFA for each parenthesized subexpression) and at runtime (where determining exact match locations requires laborious search). Up to now we've made little attempt to optimize this situation. This patch identifies cases where we know at compile time that we won't need to know subexpression match locations, and teaches the regexp compiler to not bother creating per-subexpression regexps for parenthesis pairs that are not referenced by backrefs elsewhere in the regexp. (To preserve semantics, we obviously still have to pin down the match locations of backref references.) Users could have obtained the same results before this by being careful to write "non capturing" parentheses wherever possible, but few people bother with that.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
