Where will D sit in the web service space?

i currently use vibe.d in a couple of productive apps.
i think it really shines when it comes to low latency, traffic
heavy backend/api services.
its true that the ORM is missing and multi-thread scaling is not
very good.
but after some tuning i am very happy with single core
performance.
no immediate need for a full fledged web app with all the html
stuff but
rather a blazing fast api server that provides the
realtime/streaming (websocket/http2) interfaces so that apps that
keep state over requests can be built.
the time of stateless webservices (REST in peace...) is coming to
an end.
further down that line it would be pretty amazing to be able to
compile web assembly from d and push it out from the server to
the client. ( voltframework.com is an interesting approach in
that direction)
once libasync compiles under ldc and hopefully enters the
webframework benchmark it better beats the shit out of the
competition. and if so, people who do this stuff in C/C++ now
will start to use it.
