I haven't read the article (so not sure about details), but isn't 
the
comparison in the cited page inspired by the "benchmark game" 
problems
and languages shown in the following site?

https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/
https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/description/summary.html

If so, I guess new languages appear in the website only when new 
codes
are submitted for comparison (from users' side). So the situation 
may be
not "other people not much interested in D", but rather
"D users are not much interested in such comparison (so no codes 
submitted
yet)", e.g.

https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/performance/mandelbrot.html

# FWIW, I do not think the above "ranking" is very useful for
for determining fast languages in a practical sense, because the 
codes
often utilize very low-level things (to gain maximum speed) and 
so often
very ugly and not readable. The codes do not reflect the usual 
coding style
in many cases, IMO. On the other hand, I feel it is interesting to
see how different languages are used for the same topic (e.g. 
mandelbrot)
(so in a way similar to RosettaCode).
