From what I see in druntime/src/rt/arrayint.d, there are some heavy
optimizations for x86 architecture but not for x86_64.

For instance, in my code replacing a vector operation which resulted in a call
to _arrayExpSliceAddass_k, with a loop, gave me 2x performance boost with -O
-release -inline flags (and even more with LDC compiler).

As a temporary solution (until optimized versions will be written), I suggest
to enhance the following condition by taking target architecture into account:
