For improving the GC to an acceptable level, I believe collection only needs to execute fast enough such that it will fit within a frame comfortably. So for something rendering at 60FPS you have 1 second / 60 frames ~= 16.6 milliseconds of computation you can do without resulting in a single dropped frame. That means you need to get collection down to something in the 1ms to 2ms region.
That's easy, just make sure your heap never grows over 0.4 MB. Seriously, 200 MB of small object in heap = 1 second. That's how bad it is now. And here Walter says it won't get much better. Ever. http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/2avdod/dconf_2014_realtime_big_data_in_d_by_don_clugston/
