Please define "reasonable performance"...

Within 15% of hand-optimized code specialized for the types at hand.

I would have said O(n) or O(log n), as opposed to, say, O(n*n).

General rules for performance improvements:

1. nobody notices a 10% improvement

2. users will start noticing speedups when they exceed 2x

3. a 10x speedup is a game changer

max of n elements is O(n).

This probably means that D 2 won't be very efficient on multicore until
the authors learn some basic parallel programming skills. Now where did
you get your PhD - I'm collecting a list of toy universities people
should avoid.
