ALT Dark benchmark card titled "RegExp in Bun". Top right, struck through: the GitHub issue title "Node.js is 300× faster than Bun at isbot regexp" (oven-sh/bun#5197, closed). Huge headline: "281× faster on the isbot regex." Subtext: "110 alternatives, four lookbehinds, 263,487 real user-agent strings. Same script, same machine." Three horizontal bars, drawn to scale, lower is better: Bun v1.3.14 (before) 32,395 ms — spans the full width; Node.js v26 (V8/Irregexp) 141 ms — a thin sliver; Bun v1.4 (after) 115 ms — an even thinner pink sliver. Footer: Apple Silicon, benchmark from github.com/quick-lint/bun-vs-node; improvements: JIT-compiled lookbehinds, alternation dispatch, prefix factoring, wider Boyer-Moore search. The isbot regex source is faintly visible as background texture.
