So thinking about asyncronous programming again and how I probably need to ditch #dlang's GC if I want performance and then it hit me:

Why tf is std.socket.Socket an heap-allocated, gc'd class to begin with?!?!

It dosn't uses syncronized that would require a classes monitor, nor does it hold any significant amount of data.

• a socket_t (fancy 32-bit fd)
• a ushort-enum for the address family (16-bit)
• and an bool under windows, which in an asyncronous context we could remove since all will always be non-blocking

So in sum it holds 48-bit of data, while an pointer on modern systems will always be 64-bit (classes are always pointers / by ref in dlang).

Sure, it "uses" inheritance for 2 wrapper types TCPSocket and UDPSocket, which dont actually do anything other than pre-filling the type/protocol arguments in the constructor, which dont even survive after the call to socket(2)...

Is the std really that badly engineered at times or am I going crazy???

Currently working (again) on my async framework in #dlang

I need to say coming back to #dlang after a extensive while of #rust coding, I do miss a lot of features of rust already (tho it's nice for once not fighting against the borrow checker or some strange tokio bugs), like choice-types, pattern matching and traits.

Tho it's nice to just have an decent gc and not the need of wrapping everything in `Arc<RefCell<Box<T>>>` /s

Got plenty of ideas for my async framework after working with tokio (and reading parts of it and mio).
