IMO tools for memory management in D are way better than that of other
languages. Game developers who use c++ dont use all of c++
features(templates, exceptions), because they care about performance the
same can be said about D. Yes some features use GC heap, but you can
just not use it. Or you can use so little that GC collection wont even
kick in. With Go you have no real option but to use GC.
When D structs has a destructor that is guaranteed to run for any
instance that finished construction, no matter what is the use case,
then we can have that discussion.
Until then, no, D's mechanisms for non-heap allocations are vastly
inferior to C++'s.
