Now end up you data gathering :
Turn them around (sed can do that for you), recompile,

I do not know exact implementation of D compiler but I guess it
generates code and then optimises it away. If thats the case
then you slow down your compilation unnecessarily.
You can include measurement of compile time in your benchmark.
Also having language construct that is being used only 15% of
the time correctly is not great. And D has foreach. In C++
world this is even worse.
Is this a big problem? Not really, but its still a problem.
I'm waiting the numbers that support this assertion with great
impatience.
