Ideally we'd need: a) A collection of meaningful (high-level compared to std.simd) primitives that can be accelerated by SIMD, in Phobos. Such as searching, bit-counting etc.
memchr is already optimized by SIMD, and std.algorithm.find uses memchr. In general, enormous effort has been poured into optimizing C standard library functions. If an algorithm can be implemented using such functions, we ought to.
