maybe `auto ref` can help here?
Yes, auto ref does the trick. I prefer it to passing the slice
by value, because I can extend the function to cater for more
types. My implementation (which is different from the one
posted above) works also with strings, for example. Anyway, it
gave me a performance boost of ~2.7 times as compared to the
workarounds I had. This was well worth it!
Strings are slices, too. `string` is equivalent to
`immutable(char)[]`.
