Is there a solution that results the same static optimizations, but has no runtime penalty, i.e. the functions just operates with ints? (At least when compiled)

Did you try looking at assembly generated by GDC or LDC with full optimizations? For example GDC does quite better than DMD for the proposed SafeInt type:

Also, see the table at the bottom of this comment:

Thanks for the pointers! My first priority a performant library, secondary is a nice api, 3rd is a nice implementation. So that kind of rules put Amy degradation compared to ints. I used DMD, BTW.

I see no reason for the necessity of performance degradation. Essentially I just want to assign a similar qualifyer like const or immutable. They are checked and used at compile time, but erased for runtime. Same here.
