I forgot to say that I'm compiling with DMD without any

Try compiling with DMD flag
-release
and perhaps also
-release -noboundscheck
to get relevant results.
DMD is currently not that good at inlining range primitives.
Interesting!
With -release the second version still faster but only by 10%.
Now with: -release -noboundscheck they are equal and sometimes
your version is slightly faster by ~3 milliseconds.
Matheus.
I'm very surprise. If they either equal or fast sometimes the
compiler did great optizations or it's just a multicore processor
that's helping or what else? the first version (from your post,
the one using ranges) change in each iteration two pointers (in
pop*() calls) and request r's length 3 times (in .empty calls)
while the second doesn't, just run until an already know index
(when enter in the loop) and access two index in each iteration.
This without consider the amount of ifs.
I don't know, maybe I just thinking in the C-way as that code
would run.
