I tend to agree. D's array allocation algorithm, as well as it's GC
behavior, are great for most cases. But they can fall flat in certain
cases - of course that's true of any algorithm really. :)
While I'm no STL guru, I have to ask: which allocator were you using
with ptr_vector?
I know that with D, pre-allocating data for arrays can make a big
difference if you expect to perform a lot of concatenations - especially
with atomic elements like pointers or references.
