3) Write a regexp-to-assembler compiler. Bonus points if that runs
on the GPU, using its SIMD features.

(Cuz the slow parts upthread were the regexp parts anyway, which
are implemented in a sub-language independent of Elisp and embedded
in C).

Caveat: the regexp compiler already does parts of this. Perhaps
not always optimally.
