The home page shows the current benchmarks game.

The link to the out-of-date measurements is on the help page

http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/help.php#history

D is one of the 30 or so language implementations not measured on Q6600 that were measured on Pentium 4.


(Incidentally if you would prefer D not to be shown in the out-of-date measurements - because you feel it's unrepresentative of the current state of D language implementations - just ask for it to be removed.)

Maybe someone in the D community will make the effort and produce comparison performance measurements, and then you can choose to publish them (or not) on the D website.
