There's a saying, keep your eyes on your own plate. You really 
want to compare to rust? How about starting with the fact D 
doesn't even provide a 64-bit binary on Windows for their 
compiler. That's the sort of trivial problems D has yet to even 
solve. You best look at your own plate first before even 
considering to compare to others.
