Say i have created a program written in D, what tools are

I wrote a tiny module trackallocs.d that inserts a GC proxy and
outputs to log file (or stdout) all the allocations, gathering
some stats.
You can turn tracking on and off in any place of your code.
Used it before 2.066 where @nogc appeared to check whether my
code was allocation-free. Current version works in both 2.066
and earlier versions. Find it here:

Inside it uses one hack based on knowledge of D runtime
internals, so in future versions of D runtime, if Proxy struct
changes again, it may need to be changed as well.
This is really cool stuff, I needed something like this but
didn't know it was possible.
Mind if I use some parts of it in my profiler? (there's no
license)
