If you compile D1 code with LDC you get a good performance, comparable with C or sometimes better. If you use DMD you get lower performance (usually no more than 2-3 times slower) on both FP and integer code.
You get the *same* performance as C. Compare DMD with DMC, for example. You'll get the same results. LCC vs LDC, you'll get the same results. GCC vs GDC, same results.
Comparing DMD with LCC, and GCC vs LDC, etc., tell you the difference between code generators, not between languages.
