gollark: Exciting news: I patched my patch to nim-markdown and now it runs 25% faster *without* failing *too* many test cases!
gollark: Hmm, this actually does shave off about 25% of the runtime.

gollark: Should I just file an issue saying "horrible performance issues please help"? That seems mean.
gollark: Also, performance is identical (I tested on my test file, which doesn't use emphasis, which is the bit I ended up breaking).
