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,
Take a look at BPF. Might be some work to wrap and if I recall
right some of the C headers are a bit gnarly. But it's pretty
powerful.
