[Corpora-List] fast string replacement

I mean really REALLY fast. The size of my rewriting dictionary is 1
million lines at the moment. (But it will grow larger). The size of my
corpus is 80GB. And I would like to be able to tag often.

String replacement. I use to make the dictionary such that only true
lexemes are tagged -- be they single words or multi word units.

I will try this. Thank you.
