Just wanted to post that I finished my update of iopipe to be
@safe. I still have some work to do with std.io so things are
more usable (next on my list is to make standard handles
accessible).
In this update, I've made it so nearly all of iopipe can be
used in @safe code. The one exception is the RingBuffer, which
can leave dangling pointers, hence the unsafety.
Inside iopipe is a RefCounted type that is @safe. It uses the
GC for memory management, so while destruction is synchronous,
the memory itself is left to the GC to clean up.

What's iopipe and what does it do? How does it compare with
std.process?
I my line of words, its what you'd use to stream large files and
do processing on it. Like CSV, video??, Json, and the like. Its
high performance cus it optimized to haven great performance even
for large files. Designed to let you chain the processing
pipeline using reusable functions...and you can compose one
yourself.
I'm curious myself how it differs from the NodeJs Stream API.
Would you say iopipe is a Streaming API by definition?
