A method for searching for multiple sub-strings of an original text is provided. A search query is received, wherein the search query includes a plurality of sub-strings. A hash array is allocated. The hash array has a size based, at least in part, on the plurality of sub-strings and an original text. The hash array is populated with a plurality of hash values, wherein the plurality of hash values are generated using a rolling hash function, and wherein each of the plurality of hash values corresponds to a portion of the original text. A plurality of sub-string values are computed based on the plurality of sub-strings. Each of the plurality of sub-strings are determined to occur in the original text based, at least in part, on searching the hash array for the plurality of sub-string values.
