What does that have to do with the website? The forum software
is written in D and has a reputation for performance. This is
simply a matter of it not popping up on anyone's radar and has
nothing to do with the GC or performance hits.
Jonathan pointed out that people loose confidence when projects
don't use their own tech if they have it. If this was just a
single datapoint it would be a non-issue, but when it is a
tendency, then it is a marketing issue.
I was specifically referencing the bit you chopped out in the
quote about GC and bad performance. I understood Jonathan's
argument just fine (though I disagree with it). I didn't
understand yours.
At any rate, we *are* using our own tech in several places. And I
think Seb has shown that in practice, it probably isn't that big
a deal that the entire website isn't served by a D project.
