Thanks! I tried that too, but it's slower than Lomuto. Forgot to mention in the article.

(Author here.) That is incorrect. The difficult case is and the real benchmark is with unpredictable data. The low-entropy cases will be about as fast with both partitioning schemes. This is only a smart part of the benchmarks I've run

D would be definitely helped by a large corporate sponsor. I think the foundation will make the language a more serious alternative for such adoption. Competition is good for all involved. Rust and C++ are the competitors closer to the same

I have quite a few things in mind for the immediate future. Organizationally, I want to get the D Language Foundation rolling as an organizational mothership of the language. Technically, I want to focus on: (a) completely defining the lang

There's a fair amount of recent work on both improving the GC and making it less used. We'll continue that work this year.
