I try to write something on this once a week, though longer
posts like this tend to be less common (and some weeks, like
last week, I post nothing at all...), but I rarely post here
since I don't want to be super spammy.
However a reminder here my D blog is still active and if you
use my libs you might want to check in once a month or so and
if you don't, the general D tips are probably interesting
enough for you to skim anyway every two or three months.
Anyway, I wrote something longer this time and talked both
about my libs and about some dmd compile speed/ram tips in
general so might be worth a skim by many of you:

(and a couple weeks ago I wrote about the script lang too which
if you are at all interested in that it might be fun to look
at:

you can subclass D classes in script and reuse them from D!
pretty cool if i do say so myself lol)
Yah static foreach is slow for sure. Part of the problem is that
it literally just runs a lambda at CTFE that creates a tuple. So
that static foreach 0 .. 10000 literally creates a tuple with
10000 elements. Might even create an array first that then gets
converted to that tuple. So yah, not very efficient at all.
