Sadly, `std::regex` is anything but good (poor performance, lack of Unicode support) and should be generally avoided.

In benchmarks std::regexp often is a lot slower compared to other implementations, independent from the standard library implementation of choice.
The big upside compared to all others is that it's always available. But if there is a choice alternatives are often better.
