Have there been studies quantifying the performance of D's GC 
relative to other GC implementations? My anecdotal experience is 
that D's GC can have undesirable latency behavior (long pauses), 
but throughput appears good. Of course, quantified metrics would 
be far preferable to anecdotal observations.
