--- Comment #14 from Martin Nowak <code at dawg.eu> ---
Benchmarks are OK, tested druntime/benchmarks and Higgs.
The missing PIC support of the asm SHA code is the only slowdown. It's also the
main blocker for shipping a PIC compiled static phobos on all linux amd64
platforms.
Hopefully not to difficult to fix, also see issue 9378.
