excellent!
just fyi, unless my benchmark is mistaken, the Unicode implementation has
the same problem:
str in -> 25.8 µsec per loop
unicode in -> 26.8 µsec per loop
str.find() -> 6.73 µsec per loop
unicode.find() -> 7.24 µsec per loop
oddly enough, if I change the target string so it doesn't contain any partial
matches at all, unicode.find() wins the race:
str in -> 24.5 µsec per loop
unicode in -> 24.6 µsec per loop
str.find() -> 2.86 µsec per loop
unicode.find() -> 2.16 µsec per loop
