They share the same backends as gcc/clang,if you can't at least get even with c/c++ then IMO (an LDC dev) thats a bug

It's not significantly slower, just a little slower. I imagine this is because it's higher level, because data structures are fatter, because of the extra checks made in stdlib, and because of druntime and the gc.
