One of the reasons I chose to use D for my project is that I was very

there seems to be one (or several?) bugs causing CTFE to be very slow
and to hog a huge amount of memory (multiple gigs of RAM and swap). I
use the latest dmd and my mixin code uses an Appender!string object to
produce a long string of D code containing multiple functions (~1500
lines).
Is there some known fix for this? ...
Simple code generation should work fine, even given the current
implementation quality. You need to determine what part causes it to be
slow. Comment out some of the code and do measurements. Also try using
plain strings instead of appender.
I cannot give any more support given the limited information.
