We probably do webapps and other stuff that is not real-time. A GC there
works just fine.
Now, if you compare the amount of audio apps, surveilance apps and
real-time games with the amount of webapps out there, or the amount of
command line tools out there, or text editors (SublimeText is done in
Python, I think), or a web service, or some background job ... I would
conclude that 90-95% is a pretty good guess.
For that other %5 you can use C, C++ or Rust, but be prepared do deal
with hard languages.
So, you are right: D has to choose what he wants to cover: that %5, that
%95, or both (at the expense of becoming a really difficult language to
use).
