It turns out my computer was literally running out of memory as
the file was getting unzipped. For some reason to uncompress a
1-gig file with uncompressed size of 4-gig, Zip Archive of
D-Lang tries to use more than 16 gig of RAM. I don't know why.
Maybe I missed something. I use a Windows 10, DMD v2.091 with
x86_mscoff.
My work around was to call 7z from D Lang and do the
compression over there. That worked like a charm.
It seems that zip.d [1] calls uncompress routine from zlib.d
[2]. Would calling zlib uncompress by chunks solve this memory
issue? Any ideas?
