Because of many programming language is not design for speed, there is

is writtern in Java, why not D? Compiler bootstrapping is very basic
technique,
Doing this would make it more difficult than necessary to move D to new
platforms, and would make it more difficult than necessary to adapt it
to other back ends which are usually implemented in C or C++.
Does Walter Bright use D for any projects himself?
dmdscript, Empire, Microemacs, and any new utilities I write, such as
the D archives generator.
