When compiled and linked using the GNU D compiler under Linux, the executable is large since it is statically linked with the entire D runtime library. The runtime library is separate from the Phobos standard library that defines the API for functions & types intended to be invoked by D after the appropriate import statements are included in the D source. The LVM compiler/linker appears to support shared library linkage to the D library, resulting in a smaller executable, but not necessarily smaller RAM requirements.
