It's pretty damn fast every time I use it, but I don't do as much metaprogramming, which doesn't surprise me that a specific portion of D takes up time, it makes total sense to me that metaprogramming would take up a bit of time, and throw in some regex and voila, but he's definitely a D wizard in my book, I've known his work for a while now. I'm laughing at the fact 7 seconds is too long, I think it's a reasonable amount of time, but I'm usually compiling C#. The most time for me when building D is when pulling in libraries using dub (which potentially could be improved, but I'm no expert in the matter) although if I enable parallel compilation that usually breezes on by through my code.
