I see a future for D in the HPC field, I have tried hard at building a  
robust parallelization infrastructure, and for this access to all the  
source and it being a "system" programming language (whatever that  
means exactly) helped me being able to do it.
The nice template support is really useful for numerically intensive  
code, and possible delays introduced by the GC are not so important  
(one *has* to be careful managing big objects or big collections, but  
that aside things seems to work).
