But I don't think that D's GC is fine for people who care about
it.
If it is, why are people on this forum giving advices on how to
disable and/or avoid it for soft real-time applications where a
GC freeze can't be tolerated.
D's GC isn't a crap at all, but better designs and
implementations exist, and Nim's GC is one of them.
We can either learn from it, or ignore it... But the second
solution won't make D more appropriate for soft real-time
scenarios...
