I tried using a contruct like `(:sequence :start-anchor (:regex ,regex)) where regex is a pcre string, but matching still takes for ever (as in I gave up after 10 min) when slurping a moderately sized file (400k).

Show us the regex you were using and some test data and then maybe we can help you to optimize it.
