I am following discussions about GC and some other 'critical' improves in D language for a long time. I see a lot of arguments and heaps of code, that often hard to understand (for example Templates) even more complicated to use it.

I like D, but more and more I am playing with Python, and understanding it's philosophy. And I like it because it's do not have any overhead like C++. It's clean any easy to understanding. As result it's harder to write bad code in it.

Does anybody make tests of speed most common algorithm in D and Python. I am trying to understand which project better to start in Python and which in D.

In my experience, it is better to start a new project with D, not only because of speed. As a project grows, the restrictions of Python become more apparent (and annoying). If copyright is an issue, D is the better option, too. Python can be decompiled easily. I don't know what kind of projects you have in mind, but in our projects Python is always the bottleneck and has to be rewritten in a different language anyway, sooner or later.
