What say you to that, Walter?
Apple have committed to pervasive ARC, which you consistently argue is
not feasible...
Have I missed something, or is this a demonstration that it is
actually practical?

Does it answer the question ?
-Ofast seems to perform the same as C++. -Ofast allegedly does
basically what '-release -noboundscheck' does. You'd never try and
benchmark D code without those flags.
But other languages are very fast without loosing the bounds check... Other
languages don't sacrifice safety and yet are very performant.
It's also not a ref-counting benchmark.
BTW, just pushed a new optimization to dmd's back end that dramatically reduces
the number of bounds checks. But that won't help with ref-counting, either.
