This is in part because D doesn't have a compacting GC. A compacting
GC implies allocation speeds comparable with the speed of allocation
on stack. I guess many bearophile's benchmarks do not account for GC
collection cycles, which should be slower in C#/Java because of the
need to move objects. I think, fair benchmarks should always include
garbage collection times.
