Very slow extraction for specific string about extruct

[lopuhin]

@Schwankenson I didn't check the string yet but what might help is restricting the supported dialects by passing a custom syntaxes argument to extruct.extract, in case you can afford that. Depending on the data you deal with, you might find that some dialects are very rare but have large processing time, so it can make sense to disable them by default. For example, in one project we only use syntaxes=['microdata', 'opengraph', 'json-ld'] as they cover most kinds of semantic markup and are fast.

@lopuhin Great, thank you! Limiting it to json-ld and microdata shortens time to below one second!

Glad it helped, and thanks for checking 👍
I'd rather keep the issue open to see if we can fix this or update defaults or README

For one html string, I waited 10 hours. Finally found out that the problem is just in 'microformat'. After skipping that format, it takes just 1 second.

Super helpful thank you - this was the case for me too.
