Really? I thought rdmd caches object files. Or does that only apply to executables?

rdmd is geared toward building one executable out of several files. It uses the all-in-one-cmdline approach. For programs up to medium size that's the fastest way. We could provide file-at-a-time as an option.

There are some issues with that. Just search for incremental complication, or something like that, in these newsgroup. It has been tried before, notably by Tomaz.
