Yeah, me too (followed by core.time, std.datetime.stopwatch, and 
std.datetime...), but it isn't obvious any of them are actual 
winners.

If you already basically know what you're looking for, it can 
refresh, but if it is first time

core.thread - D Programming Language

Jump to: getAll · getThis · id · isDaemon · isRunning · join · 
name · opApply · priority · PRIORITY_DEFAULT · PRIORITY_MAX · 
PRIORITY_MIN · sleep · start · this · yield. class Thread ;. This 
class encapsulates all threading functionality for the D 
programming language. As thread manipulation is a required 
facility for garbage ...


doesn't really indicate it was a good hit and when the click the 
page, even finding that jumplist takes a second search. This is 
one of the better results I tend to get off the official site.


Whereas mine gives:

core.​thread.​Thread.​sleep

     Suspends the calling thread for at least the supplied period. 
This may result in multiple OS calls if period is greater than 
the maximum sleep duration supported by the operating system.


immediately, right there on the result page. As well as other 
hits such as vibe.d's sleep.
