It's not the match data that's expensive.  It's the save-match-data.
The match-data is built cheaply during the call to string-match in the form
of a C data structure.  It's only when `match-data' is called that it ends
up building a Lisp lisp (sometimes with markers to boot).


Would it be possible to rewrite save-match-data in C then?
