The issue is that the memory *is* leaking -- it's because the struct destructor is simply not getting called. If I call free() manually, the memory usage decreases normally, so it's not a measurement problem. Furthermore, this doesn't seem to be an Array(T)-related bug at all -- it seems that pretty much *any* struct with a destructor will not have its destructor called on exit. In fact, after reading the language specifications, it seems like the glossary contradicts itself: it defines Plain Old Data as referring "to a struct that [...] has no destructor. D structs are POD." By definition, if D structs were POD, then they could not have any destructors. It seems like the language contradicts itself, and the compiler only *sometimes* calls struct destructors. Any ideas? Is this a bug? And thank you for all your great responses! :)
