Yep. I've tryed the latest ldc and gdc and both cashes... Although I don't know how to add a "-lowmem" switch to those compiler... but I suspect it would not change anything.

If dub "singleFile" could be more intelligent and not recompile everything it would solve my problem!

If you're using a dub.sdl:

dflags "-lowmem"

dub.json:

{
   ...
    "dflags" : ["-lowmem"]
}

The compiler directly:

dmd -lowmem [rest of args...]

See dflags under Build settings in https://dub.pm/package-format-sdl https://dub.pm/package-format-json.html

Still no luck.

Anybody has a decent build system as easy as dub but that doesn't recompile everything? Or everybody rolls their own?

Dub allows you to create sub packages within you dub package.
This might solve the recompile issue for you.

Kind regards
