I'm hoping to put all information in one place. Then when someone 
on Reddit or HN or here starts making claims about the GC, I can 
give them one link that shows all of their options. There's this

https://wiki.dlang.org/Memory_Management
but that isn't comprehensive or as to-the-point as it needs to be.
