As I tried the changes on the same test as in [0]
It went on my PC like this:

DMD debug:
Cerealed: 2 secs, 854 ms, 687 μs, and 2 hnsecs
MsgPack:  2 secs, 328 ms, 698 μs, and 3 hnsecs

DMD release:
Cerealed: 1 sec, 619 ms, 570 μs, and 9 hnsecs
MsgPack:  1 sec, 554 ms, and 185 μs

LDC2 release:
Cerealed: 966 ms, 398 μs, and 4 hnsecs
MsgPack:  926 ms, 792 μs, and 3 hnsecs

GDC release:
Cerealed: 1 sec, 97 ms, 892 μs, and 1 hnsec
MsgPack:  1 sec, 138 ms, 359 μs, and 2 hnsecs

So it's almost the same now.
