The D core.thread lib could certainly have more functions added 
to it.

If you are using a posix compatible OS, check out

core.sys.posix.sys.resource;

Use this function to get runtime stats
int getrusage(int, rusage*);

For usage details, consult the manpage
http://linux.die.net/man/2/getrusage

The times returned are in seconds+msec but you can convert to 
approx ticks using conversion functions in core.clock.

As for Windows, I have no idea how to get this information, but 
there's probably a way.
