Please, elliminate GC.
This also hurts the open source community. Why would I
write/opensource a high performance library if I know that
projects like AAA games are not going to use it anyway due to
GC in D?
- well there is an AAA game using it now,
- many existing AAA games have a GC already,
- the GC doesn't prevent anything from being done when it comes
to real-time,
- you lose development time by not having GC,
- preciously few people get to make AAA games anyway, and they
will workaround anything in their path
On the other hand if I can write a library that guarantees to
not use and not need garbage collector then even C and C++
projects can use it.
Even if you use the GC you can make a library that C and C++ can
use.
