82 Does not work (yet) with NFA:
83 - \%u, \%x, \%o, \%d followed by a composing character
84
85 Don't call nfa_regmatch() recursively if the "out" state is not going to be

97 It's very slow compared to the old engine...
98 Performance tests:

100 - ~/vim/text/edl.svg (also XML)
101 - glts has five tests. (May 25)
102 - ~/vim/test/veryslow.js display last line (file from Daniel Fetchinson)
103 - ~/vim/test/slowsearch
104 - ~/vim/test/rgb.vim
105 - search for a.*e*exn in the vim executable. Go to last line to use
106 'hlsearch'.
107 - Slow combination of folding and PHP syntax highlighting. Script to
108 reproduce it. Caused by "syntax sync fromstart" in combination with patch
109 7.2.274. (Christian Brabandt, 2010 May 27) Generally, folding with
110 'foldmethod' set to "syntax" is slow. Do profiling to find out why.
111 - It does not use any of the optimizations, such as required start pattern.
112 - When lists are empty in nfa_regmatch() and match is true, it keeps looping
113 without doing anything.

202
203 When a buffer-local mapping is used, but a global mapping starts with the same
204 characters, Vim currently waits for the next typed character to find out if
205 the global mapping matches. It is probably better to let the local mapping
206 win and not wait. (discussion with Andy Wokula, 2013 Jan 30)
