Efficiently passing structs

If I have a large struct that needs to be passed around, like a 4x4 matrix
for example, how do I do that efficiently in D?
In std.datetime, "in" is used for most struct parameters, but I'm confused
by the docs for function parameter storage classes[1].
In C++, I would pass a large struct as (const&):
void foo(const Matrix4x4 &m);
Is "in" in D the same as passing by const& in C++? The documentation
doesn't say anything about "in" being a reference, but it doesn't say that
"out" parameters are references either, even though it's usage in the
example clearly shows that it is.
Thanks,
Bit
