Not so long ago, SDC used to require more than 2.5Gb of RAM and
minutes to compile, and it wasn't possible to compile it as
separate modules due to various bugs in the frontend.
Now it is not only possible to compile it as separates modules,
but I was able recently to reenable the compilation of all libd
at once, as it is no much faster.
I can now compile SDC on my machine in 10s to 11s, linking
included, and less than 500Mb of RAM.
That is a huge step forward to me, and probably to some other D
users.
SO, once in a while, you got to stop complaining, and say a big
thank you to all of you here that contribute to DMD.
All praise SDC! :)
Btw was there any specific commit / release that reduced memory
concumption or it was a gradual improvement?
