Eh, I'd say it is D's gc implementation specifically that is
the biggest worry rather than the concept. I think the .net gc
is seriously like 10x faster than D's implementation.
Yes, yes, you're right. However, not allocating at least in
Phobos is one of the surest way to get near optimal performance,
not to mention it's always more satisfying when you know that
your program doesn't monopolize Mb of RAM to do even the simplest
task.
