Cool interview. The D discussion was looooooong, I was expecting a

Now if we could have an easy way to enforce the GC out of compilation
via some compile-time switch we could forever get rid of that GC
equals slow application argument. I find that "D is 90% of C++'s speed
and that's it" comment to be silly. I'm paraphrasing there, I can't
recall the exact words, but it was something to that effect.
Once the D GC is replaced by a sufficiently sophisticated one, I believe
D with GC could quite easily beat C++ in benchmarks.
