RainerThanks, works great. Only some minor issues: Some of the GUI optimization options doesn't propagate correctly to ldc. inline: no effect boundscheck: no effect singleobj: no gui option available and without it, the performance of my app is abysmal, that's how I noticed these issues. Optimization levels: only one level is exposed in the GUI Fortunately the workaround is easy, adding this to "additional options": -O5 -inline -boundscheck=off -singleobj Daniel N

Not sure, if this should be undone if the inline option is not checked.boundscheck: no effectWill fix, I have to add the 3-way bounds check option for dmd anyway.singleobj: no gui option available and without it, the performance of my app is abysmal, that's how I noticed these issues.I suspect there is no cross-module inlining without this option. Should match the inverse of "Multiple Object Files", though that does something slightly different with dmd.Optimization levels: only one level is exposed in the GUIUnfortunately, the optimization options don't match between compilers, so I guess it needs to be customized for each compiler.Fortunately the workaround is easy, adding this to "additional options": -O5 -inline -boundscheck=off -singleobj Daniel N
