dlang.org website has a quick try editor with D code example.
Please remove that feature (at least the buttons to run it) as
it takes ages to run the example and leaves an impression that
D is very slow!!
This is only good if it can run quickly like the similar
feature available on the golang website.
If you love this feature and refuse to remove it, at least
please move it to another page. You don't want to lose people
within minutes of their first visit to D website with a total
misunderstanding of the purpose and power of the D language.
I don't think it was always that slow. It does currently seem
rather slow.
