Ok, thanks.

How should I best build vox for maximum performance?

These alternatives correctly produce a binary:

     dmd -i main.d
     ldmd2 -i main.d
     ldmd2 -O -release -i main.d

but running the binary produced

     ldmd2 -O -release -i main.d

prints

     Running 218 tests

but never completes...
