This benchmark - in contrast to all other benchmarks - was
running the regexp match on 1-byte substrings of the input
instead of the entire input. Worse, it was doing so by preallocating
a slice of slices of every 1-byte substring. Needless to say,
this does not accurately reflect what happens when the regexp
matcher is given a large input.
