I also appreciate that he takes the time to benchmark and create bug reports. I hope he continues with all of these.
Dude, you're wasting your breath with such a serious reply: "thank you oldtimer" is effectively a troll, just like "oldtimer" himself. People should pay little to no attention to these posts made under random anonymous nicknames, especially if its the first posts made under such a name. There seems to be a pattern where occasionally some troll identity will reply and argue against some other troll identity. It's a curious thing at best, I'm not sure what the intentions are (trying to make one troll post seem more respectable? Just messing with the heads of other D users?), but it's best to just not waste time on that.
