I did a quick test of one tiny calculation, maximum optimization
switched on:

Compiler: size: elapse time
DMD v2.065: 1134444: 8.782991
GDC 4.9.1: 10073177: 8.837684
LDC master 22b74dc41a69ea49b4bb9dba588ed13611a9609f: 363973: 8.619940

So I can't say anything about fast, but I can clearly see small. This is
on Debian Sid.

I think for compilation times: DMD < LDC < GDC
