What timings did you get? On my computer, the D version ran slightly faster (56 seconds vs 63s for C++) without optimizations turned on. With optimizations turned on, C++ took a nice lead (28 seconds vs 53 seconds for D). This is similar to other benchmarks I've run in the past. Standard D builds beat standard C++ builds, but gcc's optimizer takes the lead vs dmd's optimizer. However, in the past, I've found writing D style instead of C++ style lets standard D beat even optimized g++. I wonder if that's the case here too.. > - The final print of the "." done using write() doesn't perform > the fflush. So after few tries I have used printf. I have not > found a good way to flush. Suggestions welcome. To flush with D's stdout, simply call stdout.flush: write("."); stdout.flush();
