I'm experimenting with a new GC at

https://github.com/nordlow/druntime/blob/fastalloc-gc/src/gc/impl/fastalloc/gc.d

in my druntime branch fastalloc-gc.

I've found a way to benchmark it using dmd as outlined at

https://forum.dlang.org/post/zjxycchqrnxplkrlmnsj forum.dlang.org

but what about rebuilding druntime+phobos with ldc and linking 
with that specific libphobos.so when compiling my benchmarking 
app with ldc? Is it possible? If so, what's the preferred way?

LDC has its own forks of druntime and Phobos, with numerous 
required adaptations. So you'd need to apply your patches to 
those forks & build the libs (druntime and Phobos are separate 
libs for LDC), e.g., with the included ldc-build-runtime tool, 
which makes this painless: 
https://wiki.dlang.org/Building_LDC_runtime_libraries
The Wiki page also shows how to link those libs instead of the 
shipped-with ones.

Thanks.
