Unfortunately, you're right. The title will leave the
impression "D is slow at compiling". You have to carefully read
the article to see otherwise, and few will do that.
Well comparative to itself sometimes it is. When you initially
write D code you get used to the blazing fast speeds, but when
eventually the compilation speed slows down as a project grows
then this has a real effect on productivity.
Maybe a better title would have been "D compilation sometimes
slows down too much", but it wouldn't get as many hits. On the
upside, people who read the article - or even just read the
comments section, will quickly realize that D's compilation speed
is still miles faster than the competition. They might actually
try the language. :)
