State-machine based syntax highlighting

I just read that in the text editor FTE does syntax highlighting can be
defined with state-machines.

Here's a LUA example I found: http://t-o-m-e.net/tmp/m_lua.fte

Does anyone know the dis/advantages of this method compared to the
regexp-based emacs approach? E.g. would it work faster than the current
emacs implementation?
