I was just trying to explain why C++ developers have GC phobia 
through a very simple example.

Even the simplest string concatenation in any garbage collected 
language (like Java, etc) can be the cause of of serious game 
freeze, which most players (including me) won't tolerate for long.

Even one tiny allocation which is hidden deep somewhere in an 
external library of some sort...

But it was obviously pointless to try to explain it on this D 
forum. I understand it now.
