TypeInfo, largely.  Executable size has come up a few times in the past. 
  Read the archives for posts by "kris" to track them down, both here 
and in either D.bugs or D.announce (I can't remember where the other 
threads were located).  If it helps, "hello.exe" used to be around 70k. 
  The jump above 100k occurred within the past six months.
