First of all, I very much enjoyed the talk. It was as interesting as it was entertaining.
Yes, I enjoyed it as well.
I do have a question regarding the talk's section on devirtualization. As a language that imposes virtual methods for classes, how well does D play when it comes to devirtualization? And on a side note, does D have a different way of implementing virtual methods than most C++ compilers do?
In D it seems that currently the preferred way to compile a project is to compile all the source at once using RDMD or similar. Isn't that a great opportunity for full program analysis to do devirtualization?
