Compiler: DMD 2.065 and LDC 0.14
OS: Linux 64bits (8 cores, but there is no parallelism here)
flags: -O -release -inline (and -noboundscheck for DMD)

see if Appender method calls are being inlined.

I did spend some time with -profile and gained a nice 10% increase in
speed with that, fighting bottlenecks in my code.
