           Summary: Horrifically slow compilation for array literals
                    inside functions
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All

            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody@puremagic.com

I found this in the DMD test suite. One file, test44.d, takes much longer to compile than any of the others. The actual test is basically just this:
---
void main()
{
int [] x = [
1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,
];

}
---
but copy the 1,1,1,1,  line a thousand times.
The slow compilation happens in the glue layer: compiling with dmd -o- is
instantaneous, but dmd -c takes minutes.
Which is really silly since it can should just compile to a malloc + memcpy
from data segment.
Compiling with -O makes it even worse.

This could be related to bug# 8449.
