I just found that new LLVM solves this issue (and was very
surprised).
The reason that ndslice <=v0.6.1 was so slow is LDC Issue 2121.
I have added workaround in [2], it is v0.6.2.

What's surprising about it? Thinking very simplistically (I
don't know how it actually works), if inlining happened first
then surely the later optimisation stages wouldn't have a
problem detecting the necessary loop invariants and hoisting
them out.
It did not work before. I did similar benchmarks a year ago.
