As I understand it syntax-ppss parses the whole file (but uses a caching system
to improve performance). Am I right in assuming parse-partial-sexp under emacs
22 would achieve a similar result, but more efficiently and without the caching
stuff as it only parses a part of the file?
Just interested as a new mode I've been working on is using syntax-ppss, which
seems find given my hardware and size of the files I'm typically working on,
but at the time of writing, I did have a small concern regarding how well the
approach would work on large input files.
