So someone working with Ruby is not going to want to work with D 
because of GC performance? I wonder what percentage of Ruby 
programmers have thought about garbage collection ever. I could 
see an argument that there are existing frameworks or some other 
reason to prefer another language, but it is highly unlikely that 
GC would be the reason that both C++ and Ruby programmers would 
not want to use D.
