I recently hit this performance issue myself while trying to use a lookup
table, rather than branching on logic for a function.  It can be avoided by
declaring the field as invariant, but I had originally used Enum as thats one
of the ways suggested by TDPL for doing CTFE.


pseudocode:

bool[256] generate_lookup_table(); // function declaration

// Performance = terrible here
enum lookup_as_enum = generate_lookup_table();

// Performance = great here
invariant lookup_as_enum = generate_lookup_table();
