I found another approach. It avoids the GC and the Heap: A

That should work.
It is unsafe, but might work in your specific case.
The problem is that future changes might exhibit memory
corruption, if the limit of your buffer is too low. Would
probably be a hell to debug.
Yes, but I know I never need more than 4 C pointer at the same
time.
I think there is bigger problem (and bigger memory error) here.
When you inside struct method load pointer to some field you
cannot rely that after leaving the method, the pointer will be
safe. Structs are almost often located in stack and there are
movable, which means that struct stack 'this' pointer may
change.
There is even issue in bugzilla with example when delegate
touches struct field and is invoked at some point later which
causes silent memory error because delegate pointer became
invalid.
So I should change it from C[8] to C[] = new C[8]; to be sure?
