When searching patterns like e.g. "Bloom|Dedalus" or in general "s1|s2|.." the fast commentz-walter algorithm is not used at all.

Analyzing the source code shows that in function dfamust() in dfa.c one string at maximum (!) is computed as keyword for dfa->must (s. attached code excerpt). So all string pattern matching in kwset.c uses at maximum one string.


excerpt from dfamust():

..
done:
  if (strlen(result))
    {
      MALLOC(dm, struct dfamust, 1);
      dm->exact = exact;
      MALLOC(dm->must, char, strlen(result) + 1);
      strcpy(dm->must, result);
      dm->next = dfa->musts;
      dfa->musts = dm;
    }
  mp = musts;
  for (i = 0; i <= dfa->tindex; ++i)
    {
      freelist(mp[i].in);
      ifree((char *) mp[i].in);
      ifree(mp[i].left);
      ifree(mp[i].right);
      ifree(mp[i].is);
    }
  free((char *) mp);
}
