So I'll jump in as I've seen the conf before that post.

It is really worthwhile to watch. Quite informative on the 
technical side (funilly, I did implement the solution presented 
in the devirtualization part on a platform where virtual function 
were not available because of crappy compiler, but had no idea it 
was worthwhile for speed, it wasn't the goal so I never measured, 
and it also may not the case on the given plateform).

Many discussed subject apply as well to D. By the way, what is 
the state of std.bitmanip in comparison to what is presented in 
the conf ?

Also, Andrei, did you try LLVM/clang ?

Related to going native, Chandler the discussion on signess of 
integers and I really wonder if we should follow the rule that 
make unsigned spread like a virus, as C does.
