The article indicates there may be a performance problem with
std.algorithm.sort
2 lessons :
1. Kill the builtin sort function. He is probably calling that
one instead of the standard lib one.
2. Our associative array are a joke. Inconsistent interface +
slow.
H;S; Teoh worked on an alternative AA implementation, do we
know where it stands ?
He and Dicebot documented the issues he came up against pretty
