The biggest thing is probably going to be your regular expressions...

Go ahead and post an examplified snip-it, so we can get an idea of what types of expressions you are using... My guess is if you see the * character very often, there is a more efficient way of doing things.

You might want to have a look at the Regular Expression Tutorial in the Forum Charter (link @ the top left of the page) to get an idea of how regular expression processing works.
