Might be of use to someone, but I was looking for ways to speed up dmd's
albeit already fast compilation times.

Just by dropping in jemalloc in place of glibc's malloc via LD_PRELOAD
on my linux machine I saw a 10-15% drop in compilation times across the
board. Not sure if this is common knowledge or not.

(Sorry if this takes away from your coffee time : ) )

I think we should statically link jemalloc with dmd. Any takers? -- Andrei
