Oh! So you mean -nomarksweep then, right? Rerence counting *is* a garbage

Probably the best way is to express it as a positive:
-object=object_marksweep.d
-object=object_refcount.d
-object=object_generational.d
The point is that changing the relatively small object.d enables various
fundamental approaches to allocation.
8. Well with this all a very solid offering of D without garbage
collection would be available at a low cost!
Besides this not being "non gc D", seems like a good idea. If I know there
were any chance that RC had a chance to be accepted in the D, I would
included it in my thesis.
Walter?
One cool thing is that you can compile the same application with and
without GC and test the differences easily. That's bound to show a
number of interesting things!
Please, stop calling it "without GC", is really confusing =)
I agree.
