I'm like an honest opinion... Am I wasting my time trying to do

Is there a stable LDC, or is there possibly something wrong
with my install? Is LDC sufficiently working to use for
"production"?
Dmd is very well-supported on Windows, but its optimizing backend
is not as good as llvm. Ldc's MSVC support has only been around
for a year or two, so while it produces faster code, you may run
into some bugs. If you have to have speed, your best bet is to
use ldc and report any issues you run into.
I don't think gcc supports Windows very well, so I doubt gdc can
either.
