when using T[string], hashing is used. Computing the hash is slow(relatively speaking).

Does D cache the hashes? Strings are immutable so there is absolutely no reason why the hash ever need to be computed more than once.

It computes them on insertion, and caches the result in the structure of the hash table.

But i think he speaks about the strings that are tested for inclusion (i.e opIn RHS), not those who are inserted, for which obviously the hash is known.
