Is Phobos compiled with LTO enabled?
LTO is *link* time optimization so I'd say it makes no sense
for libraries, as they are not linked.
Static libraries _are_ linked into your executable and LTO is
very relevant for libraries.
Having druntime and/or Phobos compiled with LTO enabled can
provide massive speedups.
I have not worked on it yet, but it'd be awesome if we could ship
LDC with LTO versions of druntime and Phobos. PRs with additions
to our CMake files are very welcome! :-)
cheers,
