version 2.067 that still had the C++ frontend took more than 100 
seconds. I think if the backend is translated to D, building the 
compiler will take not more than 2 seconds.
To put it in perspective, building gcc with only C and C++ 
support takes around 15 minutes on my machine and clang+llvm is 
ridiculously slow to compile with not far from 1 hour compilation.
Ok, these projects are much, much bigger but that doesn't change 
the fact that C++ is slow to compile.
