A large program written by D users risks having the same amount of unit-tests,
so this is a general problem, not just of Phobos.

So maybe the right solution is not to keep assert() dumb, but to find ways to
compile unit-tests using much less memory.

I think this idea also goes well with compiling unit-tests more independently
from each other, to give the user a simple summary of what tests have failed.
