I have a simple standard .d script and I'm getting annoyed

Also please keep in mind there could be other factors like
slow disks, anti virus scanners,... which causes a slow down.
I have seen similar behavior that I attribute to virus scan
software. After compiling a program, the first run takes
several seconds to run, after that it runs immediately. I'm
assuming the first run of an unknown binary triggers a scan,
though I cannot be completely sure.
Try compiling a new binary in D or C++ and see if a similar
effect is seen.

The desktop computer I'm testing this on contains Solid State
Drive, a Windows 10 Home Operating system and about 7-9 years old
of hardware. But remember, we are living in a 21 century, the
hardware performance is great, even for the old hardware that is
10 years old, especially the desktops.
I tried to disable Windows Defender real-time protection, it
didn't helped to speed up rdmd. However until I test it on Linux,
I can't be sure if Windows do not have other less obvious quirks
that could slow down third party programs such as D compiler or
rdmd.
