&lt;p&gt;You're right! 

&lt;p&gt;Moving the [pos] modification into the [while] loop body means that it only gets executed after successful (aligned) matches.

&lt;p&gt;And that helps my performance a lot. 

&lt;p&gt;Thank you. Especially for persisting when I wasn't seeing the wood for the trees.

&lt;div&gt;"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". &lt;/div&gt;
