Small string optimization will make the struct bigger, thus making swapping slower. If the struct is no bigger than 2 pointers, swapping it is ultra fast.

Interesting. Read up on it and tried changing the strings to be ~50 chars long. C++/std::string gets better, but C++/const char* still beats D by a small margin:

C: 1.852s
C++/std::string: 1.489s
C++/const char*: 1.034s
D: 1.188s

Could be the cost of swapping the "fat" in "fat pointer", in which case: worth it.
