The first point is valid (when are we going to get a better
GC? :-/), but the second is questionable.
Have there been studies quantifying the performance of D's GC
relative to other GC implementations? My anecdotal experience
is that D's GC can have undesirable latency behavior (long
pauses), but throughput appears good. Of course, quantified
metrics would be far preferable to anecdotal observations.

Have you tried running the GC instrumentation on your tsv
utilities? That might make for a very interesting blog post.
