D slower than C++ in compile time

Gregor once explained why build tools need to call DMD once per file:

This makes dsss look like it is slow, but actually this is a concequence
of a DMD workaround.
For the DWT library this would lead to compile times >15 minutes!
In the past I found the compile times always a big argument for D.
Hopefully this point gets attention at digitalmars ;)
