Supposedly the llvm is slower for generation then dmd's backend. Atleast 
what was said during the SDC DCONF talk.

But I'm all for this, could also use it to cache code that is generated 
ext. in memory. Less usage on the hdd can only be a good thing.

I'll leave this to somebody who does know this area of things.
