Have you any tips for using D when you need fast string

    foreach (i, range)
    {
        foo ~= bar;
    }

or:

    foo = foo ~ bar ~ baz ~ qux;

I've used std.string.format(...) in some instances which sped 
things up which surprised me.

Are there faster ways of appending strings?

Regardless of whether you end up using lots of ~=, or Appender 
(possibly with formattedWrite), using reserve never hurts.
