[OT] Why mobile web apps are slow

>> So before Java was born, I was already convinced a GC was
possible for systems programming.

Can you explain (simply) how D's GC works and what improvements 
are on the roadmap for it? As it sits, I'm a little hesitant to 
use it for large applications because of its overhead I've heard 
about on other threads.

"the manual memory managed version runs at 5 ms which is 200 FPS 
and thus nearly 3 times as fast as the GC collected version."
