I think the problem of memory management can be reduced to two
points:
(1) The garbage collector for D is sub-par.
I want to try out a few obvious things in the next couple of
weeks.
- better predictable memory access during marking
- parallel marking
- parallel finalization (nice to have)
Those are fairly simple to implement, but I'm hoping for huge
improvements.
(1) We need a precise garbage collector. The fact that a
garbage-collected language experiences memory leaks truly
reflects poorly on on D.
What's the reason for leakage? I'm a bit skeptical about the
precise GC work.
