Comment (by azaozz):

 Added alternate patch. Thinking we should replace the non-greedy match all
 bit in the regex which will remove the backtracking, i.e. we don't want
 the
 {{{
 .*?
 }}}
 and are better off with
 {{{
 .*
 }}}

 To make that possible can split post_content in chunks each containing
 only one <pre> tag, then replace `\n` with a placeholder using greedy
 regex and put post_content back together.
