The final executable size is about 300 KB. Isn't that a bit huge,

300kb is the lower limit if you use phobos and druntime.

First response (and yet not actually an answer) to a newcomer is from a phobos hater, isn't it grand!

Anyways, there are not much of reasons that should make D produce bigger executables than other system languages. I remember, just recently Andrei fixed something in phobos that affects exe size. It is getting better but as far as i can gather from this newsgroup it is a low priority (bug?).
