Have you tried `item.classinfo is typeid(xxx)` so `is` instead of 
`==`? That... might not work across shared libraries, but 
otherwise it should give the same comparison without any string 
compare.

but the trickier part would be making the toString function 
@nogc (make its return value a ref type?).

There's already options for toString((char[] s) { process s here 
} ) that can dump it into a stack buffer. Perhaps the druntime 
function could call that overload instead of the zero-arg version 
too.
