If you need to write a custom splitter to get acceptable performance then it sounds to me that D or Phobos have failed.
In D, you can write custom versions of algorithms to exploit unique characteristics of particular data structures. I don't regard that as a failure.
But if, to write a custom version, you had to switch to another language, then I would agree that is a failure of a "systems" programming language.
