1330    There are a number of optimizations that \fBpcre_exec()\fP uses at the start of
1331    a match, in order to speed up the process. For example, if it is known that a
1332    match must start with a specific character, it searches the subject for that
1333    character, and fails immediately if it cannot find it, without actually running
1334    the main matching function. When callouts are in use, these optimizations can
1335    cause them to be skipped. This option disables the "start-up" optimizations,
1336    causing performance to suffer, but ensuring that the callouts do occur.
