- mhh__ 6y agoAs a occasional contributor I can attest that most people on the D forums/GitHub are very sharp, although (I do not like Go) Rust's team seem excellent too (albeit slightly more academic?)
- Ar-Curunir 6y agoThe rustc developers are excellent as well.
- romanoderoma 6y agoNever said the contrary. Imagine what they can do in 19 years.
- avasthe 6y agoGo GC has some smart people working on it too. And Go, by the virtue of having less features, has to allocate quite more. Eg: Go doesn't have lazy ranges / streams. Dynamic dispatch using interfaces has to allocate memory on heap. Also, I expect D standard library to be optimized for Non-GC use case at least a part of it, because that's one of its use cases. Compiler's escape analysis matters too. I'm told Go's escape analysis is not very sophisticated. Last, it may be case of missing features in D version as a comment mentioned.
