You could still do exponential capacity growth by manipulating the

other issues (see my reply to Pelle). Yeah, my reasoning was really
broken. :'(
What is the reason why D does not internally manages exp growth with a
(private) capacity field? It's very common, and I thought the reason was
precisely efficiency as it does not require reallocating so often, esp in cases
such as feeding an array in a loop like in Andrei's example.)

But D does exactly that, there is a capacity field (internal to the GC),
and array growth is managed automatically, in an exponential way.
