I had a little fun today kicking the crap out of C's memcpy with a D

Request for help: I don't have a Linux system running on real hardware
at this time, nor do I have a wide range of platforms and machines to
test with. If you'd like to help me with this potentially foolish
endeavor, please run the program on your hardware and send me the results.
Just FYI, Linux results on a VM are still valid -- many people
(including myself) only use Linux on a VM, so even though it's not a
definitive win against glibc memcpy on Linux, the end result is, it's
still faster for those users :)
I won't add much, since I'm using a Mac, and those numbers have already
been posted.
But I wanted to say don't discount those findings off-hand.
