On my site you can see a version of the SciMark2 benchmark (that contains several sub-benchmarks, naive scientific kernels, mostly) for D with numerous timings. LDC is able to compile it quite well. You can find a version of that code here: http://luajit.org/download/scimark.lua I have compiled the awesome LUA JIT (it's easy) on Linux, and found timings against ldc, dmd. I have taken similar timings for another benchmark (nboby, from Shootout site). Bye, bearophile
