Hi,
Came across this post in rust-lang subreddit about the regex
benchamrks. Scala surprisingly outperforms D. LDC also gives a
good advantage for efficiency of D.

I'm willing to bet the bad result D has come from the use of DMD.
Honestly, pushing DMD as the reference implementation cost us
quite a lot on the PR side of things. D appears to be slower that
it really is.
