Good for you. It certainly explains a lot.

Not only is popularity not well defined, some interesting oddities are present.
Delphi and Pascal? "Both" more popular than D or even Go? Seriously?

Oh dear, the regex results for D are dreadful. And the matmul benchmark

Another reason why we should have memory pool support in Phobos.

I think adopting ssize_t, thus improving parity with C would be more

reviewing long code.
Either way, sizediff_t isn't used that often anyway, so I don't know if
this minor issue should take too much priority.

Hi there.
Not too long ago, I checked out DFL and got the library, plus
most samples, to build with DMD 2.059, so I do have a local
modified copy that works (for the most part).

I agree, deprecating a fundamental operator like delete should not be
taken lightly. A lot of us prefer to manage the memory manually and do
RAII for our own reasons. By all means, add clear(obj) to the
language/standard library, but both methods should always be available.
There is no valid reason
Replacing delete or forbidding it in detriment of a safer alternative
function indeed makes sense when compiling in the SafeD language subset.
However, the delete operation has a well defined role in "unsafe" D.
The most advantageous would be adding clear() as well as a possible
"destroy()" functio
