You also need to consider the market for D. Performance is one of
D's key selling points. If it had the performance of Python then
D would be a much less interesting language, and I honestly doubt
anyone would even look at it.
Whether or not the bulk of software written is critically
real-time is irrelevant. The question is whether the bulk of
software written *in D* is critically real-time. I don't know
what the % is, but I'd assume it is much larger than the average
piece of software.
