Hello,First, which version of gcc are you using? Recent versions simply delegate to the std::search in <algorithm>, which was benchmarked to be much faster than an algorithm based on char_traits::find, thus memchr, basically. Of course we are talking here about the overload of string::find exactly corresponding to strstr (that is, search a whole string inside another one), because the other, "simpler", overloads, all delegate already to memchr (via char_traits::memchr).
I recently did some profiling of my application (compiled with gcc 4.1) using callgrind (part of valgrind). I found out that the good old std::strstr is between 4 and 20 times faster than std::string::find.
