Having to manually manage large chunks of boring memory, like very large arrays of numbers, is not a shame :-) Sometimes you have to do that even with very old CLisp compilers (see ITA Software). But I have to manage memory manually I'd like to have some helpers in Phobos, like a hierarchical allocator (I have used hierarchical allocators in C and I like them).
