The sandboxing is done using Docker containers: 
https://github.com/stonemaster/dlang-tour-rdmd. It's a simple 
container that contains a recent DMD compiler and just runs rdmd 
on the user-provided source code. The Docker container is started 
with network disabled and a memory limit of 256MB. Additionally 
the dlang-tour app kills all containers which takes more than 20 
seconds to finish. This solution is quite light-weight and unless 
Docker has any significant security issue, should be quite safe.

Oh that would be awesome. The current limit is 10 compilations in 
parallel, that means for the Docker sandboxes a total ram of 
2.5GB is needed. So for a start a server box of 4GB should be 
enough for now. But maybe there is some funding available from 
the D foundation?

Thanks & regards,
