No, it's because PCRE is faster than Go's standard library regex engine on this particular benchmark. There is another entry for Go (called just `Go` I believe) that uses Go's "regexp" package.
The regexredux benchmark itself does not require any "fancy" features. It can be satisfied by pure regular expressions.
