The regexp in question is when attempting to match all the temp list that is: (\s*\w+\s?)* \s any space \w any alphabetic letter. I guess that \w+\s? is boing to prevent prevent backtracking too often but I am not sure.
The problem is when you're _not_ at temporaries. Then you have an exponential number of ways to try because any non-empty suffix of \w+ is also a prefix of \w+.
Something like "&abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz|" should trigger it. Paolo
