Too be fair, this is a problem with the *current* implementation of qr, and not the concept. Your two regexps are actually:

#UPDATE: While the previous verbose format was more
#        impressive, it was hideously long. See the
#        readmore for the literal strings.
$qq = "[a]"x100;
$qr = "(?-xism:[a]"x100 . ")"x100;

I think even a newbie could see that the latter is outrageously complicated...

$qq =<<EOqq;

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
