@drl, grep cannot do this and I do not think cgrep is present on Solaris, is it? cgrep looks nice though and it is fast indeed. I presume cgrep was tested against gawk, which is one of the slowest awks. Perhaps you could compare it to the fastest awk, which is mawk..
I have only the old Solaris-X86 running in a VM:
There are a number of repos which may have it, but I have not searched extensively. I can try to see if cgrep will compile on Solaris (it was an easy make on Linux, both 32-and-64-bit), but that will be a low-priority task.
An excerpt from a searching benchmark on a 100MB file shows:
So for that task the versions used were:

igawk
IGAWK(1) Utility Commands IGAWK(1)NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...
DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk
BEGIN {
while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
...
}
EOF
igawk -f test.awk
