In an apples-to-apples comparison, dmd is faster than go.
That comparison can be a bit hard to set up though. If you import 
std.stdio for example, dmd now has to read about 100k lines of 
code to get all the phobos dependencies in.

D can also get kinda slow with heavy ctfe... but of course, go 
has no ctfe at all.
