Talking about D here.

GC can be the best option for some languages and environments, 
but it doesn't fit D that well. Writing programs in D I always 
know where stack-allocated structs get deleted and such, but I 
have no idea on what's going on with the GC. Does it collect 
anything at all? Why doesn't it collect this? How do I force it 
to collect this?
