While we are on topic :) and as I finally understood what generational 
GC is[1], are there any fundamental issues with D to not use one?

[1] Translating from what I wrote in the Turkish forum, here is my 
current understanding: Let's not waste time checking all allocated 
memory at every GC cycle. Instead, let's be smarter and assume that 
memory that survived through this GC cycle will survive the next cycle 
as well.

Let's put those memory blocks aside to be reconsidered only when we 
really have to. This effectively makes the GC only play with short-lived 
objects, reducing the amount of memory touched. This would make some 
objects live forever, but GC never promises that all finalizers will be 
executed.
