I've finally managed to tag a first beta for vibe.d. It contains numerous optimizations in the network and HTTP code, so it's especially important to thoroughly test this before release.

0.7.26 (except for the win32 driver) still compiles fine on DMD 2.067.0, so a fully synchronized release is fortunately not essential this time.

+1 for splitting into sub-package and the performance improvements

I didn't build libevent for win64 so far and I'd rather not want to invest that time. Instead, I'd recommend to just use the "win32" configuration of vibe-d(:core) on that platform. Probably the "libevent" configuration should just be disabled on win64...

Just to be sure I get it. On Win32 I could use "libevent" or "win32 native", right? So, the libevent is not mandatory for Windows at all?

If it's not necessary I highly vote for this. Keep things simple and streamlined as much as possible. The less dependencies the better.

Correct.

Okay, I'll do that for the upcoming release! I know of nobody who has compiled libevent for Win64 themselves, so it doesn't make much sense to offer the configuration.

A release candidate is now up for testing. If now further issues come up, this will be tagged as 0.7.27 next week.
