           Summary: 4x performance regression of to!(char[]) from gcd 4.6
                    to 4.8

Test code

This function:

int f(int N = 100_000) {   
   int len = 0;

   foreach (uint i; 1..N)
      len += to!(char[])(i).length; 

   return len;
}

runs 4 times slower when compiled with gcd 4.8 compared to gcd 4.6.

Run times and compilation details on Xubuntu 13.04 64-bit Core i5 3450S 2.8GHz
(3.5GHz turbo):

5.7ms  GDC 4.6.4:
