Re: Parallel Rogue-like benchmark

That's interesting. Is there a particular reason for using size_t 
for array indexing rather than int?

uint[10] data;
foreach (i, ref x; data)
    x = i;
This code works on 32 bit systems, because the index i of an 
array is deduced as a size_t. So it fits inside the array of 
uints. On a 64 system i is still size_t, but it's now 64 bit 
long, and it can't fit. Most integral values (like int and 
uint) in D have a fixed size. While size_t is not fixed in size.

This causes some problems when you want to move 32 bit code to 
a 64 bit system.

Some times ago I opened an enhancement request on this topic, 
but perhaps better solutions are needed:
