I second that. At least DMD should know about this flaw and throw cleanly when out of memory, because currently the O/S takes care of that and just crashes everything related to compilation when in debian. It's quite a disappointing bug. On the plus side, I've never seen it go beyond 2gb of memory use even with dozens of diet templates
