hashmap per thread is not an option. The cache may be a few

But is the D garbage collector able to manage efficiently
enough associative arrays of few gigabytes? You are not dealing
with a GC nearly as efficient as the JavaVM one.
Well, these are the types of questions I have as a Java veteran
who is having a first look at D after the recent Facebook
announcement.
By now I have a decent idea of where most of the new languages
(Go has same issues, for the most part) come up short when
compared to Java's very mature SDK, so that is usually where I
start probing first.
Sorry :-(
