And if python is faster than D at something, odds are that either the code in question is poorly written or that whatever Phobos functions it's using haven't been properly optimized yet.
We should also be aware that while Python code itself is slow, its library functions are heavily optimized C code. So, if the benchmark consists of calling a Python library function, it'll run as fast as any optimized C code.
