Thanks for the info, I didn't realize.

If you want to work on big projects, you WILL need a decent computer.

I think 4GB for a modern programming language's implementation is not an
unreasonable requirement, even if it could be brought down in the
future. Especially considering that you can't even buy a new laptop
today with less than 4GB of RAM, and 3GB is becoming the norm for
smartphones.

OK. Perhaps I can upgrade my RAM (I can't afford a new computer). 
Linking phobos.lib is the first time I've got OOM, I use Firefox 
heavily. phobos.lib is only 10 MB, which is why I thought it odd that 
linking uses well over 1 GB.
