I'm not sure if you're asking because of this thread, but see

python outperforming D because it doesn't have to deal with
synchronization headaches. I found D to be way faster when
reimplemented with fork, but having to use the stdc API is
ugly(IMO)
It was also easy to get D very fast by just being a little more
eager with IO and reducing the enormous number of little
allocations being made.
