Where is the 75% value coming from?

Regarding the hashing, maybe a different hashing scheme, like 
Python dicts hashing could be better.

Regarding Don's problems with memory used by dmd, is it a good 
idea to add a compilation switch like "-cgc" that switches on a 
garbage collector for the compiler (disabled on default)?
