... Here's a question: suppose we've got a database result with 10K rows (I'd say that is fairly common), and we're processing each row with a regex (something that can't be done in SQL). What's a ballpark for gc overhead before and after your fix? (I'm still not set up to compile CVS, so I can't do it myself.)

What's a database?
