And moreover I'd be delighted to start using D instead of Go
for my next web server developments.
You can start now and get performance later? In fact you may
supply important benchmarks from your day to day usage.
Ok. Still not convinced to use D instead of C++ for my personal
use cases (games and other soft real-time apps), but I get the
idea.
So are the problems you listed not important for the decision or
the answers are not convincing?
Can you just confirm that D's fibers use most of the available
processors/cores by default ?
There is no “by default” in any non-managed language. If you are
coming from C++ I’m really surprised to see this turn of phrase.
Speaking of defaults - Vibe.d is built on Fibers and has
muliti-core mode that scales. It may have some issues on huge
number of cores but it does work.
I think this is quite automatic with Elixir's Phoenix framework.
I take it Phoenix framework is “default” in Elixir? :)

(one more silly benchmark btw, they just open the connections
without doing anything useful with them)
Btw, when I say you can actually develop complete web servers
in Dart and Go just with the components provided in the
standard libraries, I really mean it, even if I personally also
I programmed in Go.
I also was part of Dart team for about a year.
So yeah, I know what you mean.
use higher level external libraries/frameworks (from Github),
which extend the lower level components of Go's standard
library.
You can with C’s standard library. It’s all a matter of
perspective and amount of stuff in std vs amount of your code on
top.
IMHO what I see is that everybody goes on to invent a library
that is somehow better than std lib one.
