obj2asm is another one and I think it comes with dmd.

With Visual D you can view the current disassembly. It is pretty nice in seeing what dmd is doing behind the scenes along with the original D code inline.

I tried using objdump and a visual diff tool and I honestly can't find any differences (apart from the array creation at runtime). How can this be?

Maybe there are some mistakes in your assumptions.

My only assumption is that -version=runtime doesn't utilize ctfe and the other does. The rest is simple timing on both linux and windows and ctfe is way slower...
