I think so. D takes on some bloat due to the GC support and TypeInfo.
I'd consider those fair trade-offs as you probably wouldn't be using D
if not at least for the GC.

Andreas, have you given Ares a try yet? I think that comprises the most
minimal stub for D so far:

Granted, this will likely net you the largest gains on the Windows side
of the house.
Aside from that, there's probably some gains to be made with GDC, and
playing around with GCC's optimizations and whatnot, but I'm a complete
n00b in that area. :(
