Sorry, I haven't been following. Don't we already have an
implementation of the "Create a CI or other infrastructure for
measuring D’s progress and performance" project? I just haven't
been maintaining it because there hasn't been a lot of interest
in it while it was being maintained.
Here's the original blog post:

I'll give it a kick and get it back online if there is
interest. Seems wasteful to reimplement it from scratch, though.
I was aware of the site when i wrote the proposal, but the idea
is to create the infrastructure to add more measurements too,
e.g. profiling the compiler or testing it under limited memory (I
found out how much memory my CTFE thing was using the other
day!). Assuming I can get it to work I'd also like to throw the
Linux perf system in there too, but
As mentioned in the summary, this will extend to runtime
performance too but that obviously raises the question of how to
ensure consistent performance of the testing machine (or give a
relative figure).
