Is `formatValue` more lightweight to the compiler?
I already posted a very similar question at
https://forum.dlang.org/post/[email protected]
but in this thread I'm interested in knowing if is there is any
significant difference in compilation-speed and if formatValue
and/or formattedWrite needs to allocate using the GC when we are
writing a array of `char`s or a long, directly to standard
output. In theory the string could be written directly to stdout
without an extra memory buffer and the `long` could be formatted
to a temporarily (stack) allocated array of `char`s before
written to standard output.
