The results in these tests are blazing fast, but they all forego the GC for manual allocation.

In the Issues section of the repo, I included some simple, vanilla D translated from their Java implementation and made for use with the GC and runtime. I also included some raw sample times that are competitive with desktop i7 times of Rust and ref-counted C++ on...get this...a much slower laptop i5.

This sort of thing needs to be shouted from the rooftops by the Foundation.

I'll see if I can get it included so they can test it on their specific setup.

Sorry for double-posting, but I've included a GC-enabled solution based on their Java solution, and have a pull request up that's a bit more idiomatic, pulling unnecessary static methods out as functions.

It scores VERY HIGH across the board on their "naive" benchmark. High expressivity, high maintainability, extremely fast, moderately low memory usage.

This is the sort of thing that will convince people of D. Benchmarks involving GC and lots of allocations that still have it way ahead of the competition, with clean code! For any other language, this is front-page, first-glance material.

Thank you for your efforts!

Can any experts improve this to come first? That's how you win hearts and minds.

I want to see assembly of D and C++ tuned versions.
Something has got to be different.
