I'm currently working on a searcher on my own: https://github.com/elsamuko/fsrc

When I started, I didn't know ripgrep, now I use it as reference. Of course it's still slower for regex searches and it has less options, but in some cases (e.g. simple string matching search), it is faster than rg (PM_RESUME in 160-170ms), mostly thanks to mischasan's fast strstr: https://mischasan.wordpress.com/2011/07/16/convergence-sse2-...

If you want, let me know, what you think about it.

I don't see any build instructions, so I don't know how to try it. Sorry. I did run `./scripts/build_boost.sh`, but that didn't produce any `fsrc` binary that I could use.

I would also caution you to make sure you're benchmarking equivalent workloads.

There are no build instructions yet, you need to build boost with build_boost.sh and then open qmake/fsrc.pro with Qt Creator. There are binaries available here, too: https://github.com/elsamuko/fsrc/releases

And I know than benchmarking is hard, a coarse comparison is in scripts/compare.sh. More detailed performance tests are in test/TestPerformance.
