[Andrei's comment ] Cross-pollination is a good thing indeed.
I came across this while searching the programme of the
conference that Walter is attending in Australia.
This gentleman, Martin Thompson
http://www.yowconference.com.au/general/details.html?speakerId=2962
The main idea, is in this paper (11 pages, pdf):
http://disruptor.googlecode.com/files/Disruptor-1.0.pdf
and here is a review of the architecure by Martin Fowler:

My questions are:
1. Is this pattern worth porting to the standard library ?
2. Is this pattern a replacement for the 'Complexity of
Concurrency' ?

You can find few presentation from LMAX guys on InfoQ. Pretty
neat stuff if you ask me. I think someone already worked on
Disruptor-like project in D.
I would not like to have the whole thing in Phobos, just some
"basic blocks".
Actually, this is what should be behind message passing in phobos
IMO. Much better than what we currently have.
I wanted to do that at the time, but it wasn't possible without
asm. You'll find post about that if you dig deep engough in that
newsgroup.
