If you want to use DMD, build a 64-bit version yourself and complain on general that the releases are not 64-bit. Is there a specific reason why DMD isn't shipped as 64bit by default? Literally most machines are 64bit these days, so why do we limit ourselves to 32bit?

It uses all tricks which I know to use the least amount of memory. (Which admittedly still is a lot) Other then that. you'll have to wait for newCTFE to be stable enough for me to give green light for merging.
