Delegate don't GC allocate when:
- You take a pointer to a member function

I have a somewhat related question.

Why use a delegate for a closure if you can restructure the 
function to use partial (from std.functional) instead? The 
delegate will use GC, but I don't think partial would (but not 
entirely sure).
