Yes, this wouldn't be of much use though, as little work is done on the 
backend, and it only tracks dmd right now. It could perhaps be forked in 
a performance branch if someone were interested in that.

Yes, it's on github I believe, see the test/ directory of dmd. The 
server/client stuff is also available elsewhere I believe.

There was a recent discussion about this, there are plans to create a 
much cleaner and more compact view.

32 bit dmd creating 64 bit binaries, 64 bit dmd creating 32 bit 
binaries. I believe you get a description if you hover over them.
