Attaching tentative patch:
- passes make check,
- for test.cpp, generates identical output and takes execution
  time down from 2m13s to 3s.

(file #55226)

Using this patch, I'm capping the search window to 1024 bytes:
...
diff --git a/lib/srchilite/regexhighlightrule.cpp b/lib/srchilite/regexhighlightrule.cpp
index 458e63f..5ffa458 100644
--- a/lib/srchilite/regexhighlightrule.cpp
+++ b/lib/srchilite/regexhighlightrule.cpp
@@ -46,7 +46,13 @@ bool RegexHighlightRule::tryToMatch(std::string::const_iterator start,
         flags |= boost::match_not_bol;
     }
 
-    if (boost::regex_search(start, end, match, regExp, flags)) {
+    size_t n = 1024;
+    std::string::const_iterator search_end;
+    if (end - start > n)
+      search_end = start + n;
+    else
+      search_end = end;
+    if (boost::regex_search(start, search_end, match, regExp, flags)) {
         token.prefix = match.prefix();
         token.suffix = match.suffix();
 
...
and that takes overall execution down to 1.5 seconds.

[ Reported first as gdb PR ( https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30934 ). ]

When using an example with longer lines:
...
$ wc test.cpp
    80    229 293884 test.cpp
...
we have:
...
$ time source-highlight test.cpp > /dev/null
Processing test.cpp ... created test.cpp.html

real 2m13.220s
user 2m10.213s
sys 0m3.004s
...
and when using pygments:
...
$ time pygmentize test.cpp > /dev/null

real 0m2.017s
user 0m2.005s
sys 0m0.012s
...
