And another one is hold pointer to data:

class Dynamic {
   static char[] space;
   static char[] dash;
   char* dash_ptr;
   void rehash () {
     static Hash hash ;
     hash = new Hash;
     hash.clear();
   }
   void proc () {
     import core.memory: GC;
     dash.length = 32;
     dash_ptr = dash.ptr;
     dash[] = '-';
   }
}
