So, long story short:
- Usage of Mallocator instead of theAllocator made it a little

- VibeManualMemoryManagement had no (or little) effect

You could try to call GC.minimize in pair with GC.collect:
```
GC.collect();
GC.minimize();
```
to return all freed memory back to the OS.
With vibe.d this had no effect too.
Not sure that the leakage of this type is possible because if
you're running your program on 64bit Linux the probability of
it is very low. AFAIK the GC is launched every (almost) time
you allocate the memory, and if it finds "dead" pointers, it
definitely must clean them out.
Vibe.d may also leak. Have you tried to run the same code
without Vibe.d, say, using
https://github.com/ikod/dlang-requests as an HTTP client?
Now I tried it and indeed, it's vibe.d's fault. I'm not quite
sure what causes it and if this problem is known, I'll look into
that later and open an issue if it doesn't exist already.
