@Thierry: Thanks! I am not changing any complexity characteristics. The
speedup is gained by analyzing a grammar and optimizing some parts. E.g.
replacing combinators with a while loop, or using the first-set to choose
the correct branch without backtracking (if possible).

On the Smalltalk grammar, SmaCC is two times faster than PetitParser and
Compiled PetitParser is four times faster. RBParser is like four point one
times faster.
The SmaCC parsers are table driven, unless you rewrite SmaCC to produce
top-down parsers, it will not reach the performance of RBParser or the
parser compiled by PetitParser Compiler.
