Executable Size

[Unknown W. Brackets]

Because of the gc, std.file and such, you do get a penalty initially.

This has been discussed in the past and it's been shown that, generally, 
D scales better as you add more code - e.g. its fixed costs are higher 
but the variable costs are lower.

Either way, for a non-trivial (or even semi-trivial) program, I doubt 
it'd be a major issue.
