The code recurs very deeply in cases like (?:x{1,1000}){1,1000} Since if much time is spent checking whether one pass is possible, it's not worth doing at all, a simple fix is proposed: Stop if the check takes too long. To do this, we simply avoid machines with >1000 instructions. Benchmarks show a percent or less change either way, effectively zero. Fixes #7608.
