Still time for a few edits of that post?

Please emphasize the equally impressive comparison of the code 
necessary for the matrix multiplication.

glas.gemm(alpha, a, b, beta, c);

vs.

cblas.gemm(
    cblas.Order.RowMajor,
    cblas.Transpose.NoTrans,
    cblas.Transpose.NoTrans,
    cast(cblas.blasint) m,
    cast(cblas.blasint) n,
    cast(cblas.blasint) k,
    & alpha,
    a.ptr,
    cast(cblas.blasint) a.stride,
    b.ptr,
    cast(cblas.blasint) b.stride,
    & beta,
    d.ptr,
    cast(cblas.blasint) d.stride);
