I spent the last couple of hours trying to hunt down the performance 
cost in std.regex.

Its seems to be caused by std.uni. When I say caused by, I mean pretty 
much 100% of the slowness is happening there. It gets a little worse, 
the slow parts? Yeah they are being called directly and they are marked 
package. Something is off about this.
