When I hear about fast compile times, like e.g. for Pascal, immediately comes to mind - how good is optimization of the resulting executable? AFAIK, the back-end, not the front-end/parsing, takes most time when compiling C++. So in case of GCC or LLVM based D compilers, the time should be similar?

Is there a reason why you believe that to be true?
