There was a problem hiding this comment.
There is no longer a PCRE used in wp_html_split() and therefore no backtracking.

<[[gallery]]>to be an escaped shortcode inside an HTML tag, but HTML considers it plaintext instead of a tag (because the starting character after the initial<is not a letter).a. Is this actually a shortcode inside a tag to be ignored?
b. Is this a shortcode inside a text node?
<[gallery]>and the[gallery]shortcode translated into a tag name then this entire thing would become a tag on replacement.Implementation
This probably improves the performance in terms of both CPU time and memory compared to the old PCRE-based approach.
