Here is a blog-port describing the project.
http://dlang.org/blog/2017/04/10/the-new-ctfe-engine/

newCTFE will reduce the time taken for ctfe by roughly 10x
And, more importantly it reduces the memory-usage.
Instead of a few gigabyte it will not even allocate more then a 
megabyte.
(Currently it is hard capped to a maximum of 64K stack space and 
16M heap).
