          Issue ID: 17214
           Summary: std.array.Appender has an unnecessary indirection
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: phobos
          Assignee: nobody puremagic.com
          Reporter: jack jackstouffer.com

The internal variables are stored in a Data struct which is then allocated on
the GC and stored as a pointer in the struct. While this reduces the size of
Appender, this indirection is unnecessary and also results in extra GC memory
being allocated than needed.
