I wish I had your problems. I ported a sizable set of C++ code to D2 and discovered D2 with dmd was 50x slower than C++ with gcc! I've been to busy/disappointed to track down the bug(s) causing such a slowdown. If anyone is sufficiently inspired to find the bugs, I can make the GPL source code available.
