I actually found that LDC does an _amazing_ job of optimizing 
high level constructs and converting "low level" code to higher 
level functional code resulted in minor speedups in a lot of 
cases.


(Other performance benefits include the algorithm primitives 
being extensively optimized in phobos.)
