In reddit thread one of commenters complained about D performance 
and linked this benchmark : https://github.com/nsf/pnoise

I tried running it and don't see anything inherently wrong that 
may justify 3x-5x slowdowns compared to clang / gcc versions - 
however, it does plenty of floating point math I don't know 
performance implications of. Maybe someone else can have a look 
what can be a problem?
