It supports unlimited backtracking, but +does not implement @url{http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/~baford/packrat/thesis/, +Packrat Parsing}. Instead, MaxPC achieves good performance through its +optimized primitives, and explicit separation of matching and capturing input. +In practice, MaxPC parsers perform better on typical computer languages—when +compared to Packrat parsers—at the expense of not producing linear-time +parsers. + +@enumerate +@item +MaxPC is a complete rewrite of @url{https://github.com/eugeneia/mpc, MPC} with +was in turn a fork of Drew Crampsie’s @url{http://smug.drewc.ca/, Smug}. +@item +See @url{https://mr.gy/blog/maxpc.html#section-3-1, +MaxPC: Why?
