I once had a program where it took considerably longer (in 
development mode) than dmd. Then again, the code did some XML 
parsing with std.xml* (shudder!). In release mode it took ldc a 
long time to compile (and optimize), but I have to say that it 
was lightning fast after that. I usually use dmd for development 
and ldc for delivery (on Linux).
