Answer 1

The fastest way to do it seems to be something like this (code is C#):

public static List FindAllMatches(string s, List regexes)
{
    List matches = new List();
    foreach (Regex r in regexes)
    {
        if (r.IsMatch(string))
        {
            matches.Add(r);
        }
    }
    return matches;
}

Oh, you meant the fastest code? i don't know then....
