I have two spin buttons connected to the width and height of 2d objects in a scene.  Using

    mixin std.signals.Signal!(double, double) dimentionChanged;

and there is a growing delay that happens not caused by the rendering code, the transform code, or the triggering code (I used a timer to measure).

Then switching over to a D delegate, the issue went away.

It starts to freeze the gui app so that you can't do much at all.

Thus std.signals can't handle a large number of signals maybe 50 / second.  It causes some weird delays to happen.

Would anyone like to see my source code?

You need:
Visual D
GtkD-3.(latest) (32-bit)
Gtk Runtime

Wait it's happening again.  It's sporadic I guess.
