You can find a few self-contained benchmarks at 
https://github.com/D-Programming-Dash. This is the compiler 
performance CI project I started a while ago, but unfortunately 
couldn't quite finish yet due to life/academia getting in the 
way. My focus for this project was a bit different, though. I 
primarily collected real-world test cases instead of trying to 
focus on the most "meaningful" ones, and there is quite a number 
of them. The history tracking display mode is not written yet, 
and the UI lacks a lot of tooltips, etc.

(In case anybody is curious what the current state looks like: 
http://dash.klickverbot.at/dash1/compare/gdc_main:release_boundschecked@current..ldc_master:release_boundschecked@current. 
It seems that the system hit a GitHub API rate limit from which 
it failed to recover some time in January, though, so there are 
no recent results. Also, the server currently runs in debug mode 
and I didn't put any effort into front-end optimizations yet, so 
expect it to be slow.)
