Due to Jonathan advice, I converted a part of my code (enum => static this). At runtime, I got a 40% decrease in runtime, a *very* good news. But then CTFE does not work anymore: some functions tell me the static AA I use is not initialized (or whatever). I tried to use if(__ctfe) but then I lose most of the speedup. All in all, for my Pegged parser generator project, I ended up generating code specifically for compile-time (for CT parsing) and some other function for runtime. So yes, enums are useful for CT computation sometimes.
