i already posted this in the d NG:
I gave beta 3 on my win32 dev machine a try today and noticed that building vibe.d (a dependancy in almost all my projects) takes noticeably longer to built. observing the process shows that beta3 consumes almost 1.5GB of RAM while dmd 2.064 'just' uses 1GB.I am not so familiar with the compiler code and what could be causing this ? can anyone else confirm this ?
Confirmed, it totally debilitates my 1GB RAM computer with 1GB of swap (taking, as you said, about 1.5GB) whereas with 2.064 it wasn't as bad. Unfortunately I need to use 2.065b3 to avoid a bug. Hopefully the reason behind this can be found (and fixed).
