Since many-cores (e.g. Xeon Phi) are coming, a stop-the-world garbage collector might become unacceptable. If this is a good solution will be seen (maybe). I certainly do not want D to adopt this experimental feature. Let them do the research. ;) The garbage collector in Mac OS X, which has been around for a while, is a thread-local collector. It contains a global collector as well for the global data. -- /Jacob Carlborg
Re: DUB 0.9.14/0.9.15 has been released
Two additional notes: - There is a known bug that causes multiple DUB invocations to be required until all indirect dependencies are installed (watch out for a "There are still some actions to perform:" message). The current git master fixes that. - The "-property" switch has been disabled, considering that the general consensus of the property discussions was to allow dropping parenthesis on normal functions.
