digitalmars.D.learn - Can I measure how much memory is used in total, grouped by type?

I think I'm using way to much memory for pointers, so I'd like to

calculated the answer, but I wonder if the compiler/runtime could 
do it for me, to get a faster and more exact number?

More specifically, can I do this for a single value? E.g. how much memory is used by pointer types in this specific variable?
