Possible to disable.
I don’t believe a community is capable of creating a good GC. It’s just too complex engineering task. It’s been a known problem for years, still no solution.
They've got a GSOC guy workin' on it now. I would hold off judgements until that effort is concluded.
Has anyone thought about taking GC from .NET and reusing it in D?
I don't think this would work, but I don't know enough to be able to explain why.
