GDCs emitted code is crazy fast

2019-08-18 Thread James Blachly via D.gnu
I got around to finally compiling my project (processing high throughput sequencing data) and found GDC compiled code executed TWICE as fast as LDC compiled code, which itself was faster than DMD. I am truly surprised. Can't test all my code yet as GDC 8.3.0 doesn't include support for assoc a

How to install recent version on linux?

2019-05-02 Thread James Blachly via D.gnu
Apologies, but the website is extremely outdated, and I cannot find reliable, specific instructions on how to install recent GDC on linux. Distribution packages are often quite behind. For example, Ubuntu 16LTS which we are still on at work max out at GDC 5. LDC is a tarball. Is there a simi
