I'd imagine that strpbrk() is potentially a lot slower than strchr(). But I kind of doubt that splitting is such a hot path that it will matter. If we want to care, I think we could do something like: end = delim[1] ? strpbrk(p, delim) : strchr(p, delim[0]); It's entirely possible that a half-decent strpbrk() implementation does this already. So I mention it mostly in case we need to revisit this later. I think it's OK to ignore for now. -Peff
