I usually use dub to create and build projects. I built one of 
the projects with dub and then by hand with dmd[1] passing all 
the files etc. Turned out that the executable built with dub was 
1.4 MB whereas the one built by hand was only 807 kB. Why is that?

Another thing, I've spotted a typo in dub's[2] command line help:

clean [<package>]     Removes intermetiate build files and cached 
build
                         results

It should read "intermediate" (with "d"), else it sounds like the 
Goths in Asterix :-)
