Hi,
Is it possible to switch off the GC entirely in D?
Can the GC be switched off completely - including within phobos?
What I am looking for is absolute control over memory management.
I've done some tests with GC on and GC off and the performance with GC is
not good enough for my requirements.
Thanks.

It is possible, but it heavily crippeles the language and requires
modifications to druntime.
See: http://3d.benjamin-thaut.de/?p=20
Also see my GC free version of druntime:

My GC free version of phobos (heavily crippeled):

And my little GC free "standard library":

Its quite fun doing it when you want to learn new things, but I would
not recommend doing so in a real wordl project.
