I have nothing against the decision, but you can read the 
comments here:

https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/7713

I should still add support for some kind of acceleration (e.g., 
core.simd). The liberty I have with this being a DUB package is 
that I could even use intel-intrinsics.

In fact it looks very nice.

1. These are flags for DUB (?), can you add/replace it with the 
conversion to actual compiler flags?


I can do a manual compilation section.

Though, it is documentation online:
https://dub.pm/package-format-sdl.html#build-types

2. Did you test without removing bounds checks? If there is a 
noticable performance drop, I think it'd be very worthwhile to 
modify the code such that there is no penalty of boundschecks 
(at -O3); I think in theory only very few bounds checks are 
needed. Enabling good performance _with_ boundschecks on means 
that the user is not forced to build his whole project without 
boundschecks, or move to separate compilation.


I haven't tested it with bounds checking. I could do a round of 
benchmarks with different compilers and build types.

Amazing work dd! Are you considering implementing it with SIMD 
instructions with something like intel-intrinsics?


That would be interesting, especially this is my kind of stuff.

I'll be up to do it.

From memory, I remember getting ~10MiB/s when I first 
implemented keccak-tiny from C to D. When I rewrote the package 
to my liking, and I got ~130MiB/s. But these tests were in a VM 
on my i7-3770 so it's not really a conclusive thing.

SHA-3 has been in use in SQLite and in Euthereum for a while, 
which are enormous projects. SHA-1 is on life support with sha1cd 
and SHA-2 faces length extension attacks (even with SHA-2-256 and 
SHA-2-512 but not SHA-2-512/256).

I could do a benchmark again.
