          Issue ID: 18662
           Summary: -i -deps should not recurse into modules excluded by
                    -i
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd

I thought that -i could be really useful to reduce memory usage in that
scenario. Unfortunately, even though it excludes std. when building, it still
recurses into it when running -unittest -deps, with all the attendant 10GB
memory usage that implies.

Any chance dmd FILE -i -deps could be made to not recurse into modules that -i
excludes anyways?
