This benchmarks are not trustworthy. A lot of languages modified 
by contributors, dlang on the other case are just some meh 
translations from other languages by the repository author.

There is https://github.com/kostya/benchmarks which has ldc, gdc 
and dmd results and are more or less provided by the community at 
least languages like d, rust, zig, c, c++.
