That is exactly what I mentioned :? Or did you mean w/o ? In that case I don't much care it takes 5 or 10 seconds for thousands of lines of code :) (or, I don't know how to time dmd more precise than with my stopwatch when called through bud :D) Anyway, I kind of like that it takes longer now with optimization. I haven't checked whether things actually got any faster, but it feels a bit like in older games when it said: "Optimizing X for your computer" or "Generating A.I." :)
