Comment (by pento):

 == Test 7.2

 Add a very loose regex match, for ranges of characters that contain emoji.
 If something matches in these ranges, there might be emoji to process. If
 nothing matches, there are definitely no emoji.

 '''Data''': https://travis-ci.org/pento/test-41501/builds/260469301

 '''Analysis''':
 - Some small performance improvements, but nothing significant. Mostly
 still slower than Test 6.1.

 '''Conclusion''': There are some other options to explore here.
