You think more than 4K for a stack frame is very large? That is a 
crazy and unworkable restriction. Even when 2K is enough for a 
single function it will be a complete disaster as inlining could 
make this 16K in a heartbeat.

The stack is the correct place to put fast allocations as that 
memory is in the cache.

Well, D is not a system level language, that is for sure.
