I see that you will be discussing "High Performance Code Using

suggest that you include some finance (say Monte Carlo options
pricing)
examples? If you can get the finance industry interested in D
you might see a
massive adoption of the language. Many are desperate for an
alternative to C++
in that space.
It's a good thought, but I have zero knowledge of how C++ is
used for high frequency trading.
I would be happy to help you with an option pricing example that
is commonly used. Let me know if you are interested.
