--- Comment #4 from Steven Schveighoffer <schvei...@yahoo.com> ---
@nogc means no allocations, no more no less. See Walter here:
https://forum.dlang.org/post/ogal82$2ubk$1...@digitalmars.com
I can see a use case for this, but not with the OP's code, since it has
allocations (and obviously those aren't @nogc).
But if you were in, let's say a critical part of a rendering loop, and did not
want to drop frames, you may disable the gc to prevent *other threads* from
collecting during this critical period, and then turn it back on.
So I think the enhancement request is legitimate.
