I got around to finally compiling my project (processing high

Can't test all my code yet as GDC 8.3.0 doesn't include support
for assoc array require. I hope that there are plans for
convenient binary installs (rather than through package
managers which tend to be outdated, and cannot be installed on
managed systems) as there are with DMD and LDC.
Kudos to the GDC team.
It is possible, to share your code, so any one else could try why
is gdc faster than ldc? From what I can say, there is almost
always a way to make ldc as fast as gdc (sometimes you need to
pass some specific args to cimpiler or tweak a code a little bit)
