Not so long ago, SDC used to require more than 2.5Gb of RAM and 
minutes to compile, and it wasn't possible to compile it as 
separate modules due to various bugs in the frontend.

Now it is not only possible to compile it as separates modules, 
but I was able recently to reenable the compilation of all libd 
at once, as it is no much faster.

I can now compile SDC on my machine in 10s to 11s, linking 
included, and less than 500Mb of RAM.

That is a huge step forward to me, and probably to some other D 
users.

SO, once in a while, you got to stop complaining, and say a big 
thank you to all of you here that contribute to DMD.

i may seem rude and may write and write alot of posts with "BS!",
"WUT?!", "this SUX", but i really appreciate all the efforts that
people put into D. i can dislike some decisions, but i really love D,
it's great! and what makes D great is people who using it, reporting
bugs, writing ERs and writing the actual code which fuels the wrole
thing. not only compiler, but tools, libraries, articles, books and so
on.

thank you, people! you are great, all of you.

All praise SDC! :)

Btw was there any specific  commit / release that reduced memory 
concumption or it was a gradual improvement?

No idea.

One could use Digger to generate a graph of SDC build times over 
time like in the DConf talk.

Definitely. Those of us who use it for our work are, or at least 
should be, very grateful. Thanks to everyone that contributes - 
my only alternatives are C and C++!
