static arrays are supposed to be value types so they shouldn't

any garbage at all.
I think it was the case of using array literals, like this (I
didn't know much about D back then)
this(float x, float y, float z)
{
this.vector = [x, y, z];
}
And megabytes accumulated because there were hundreds of objects
all doing complicated stuff every frame, passing and constructing
vectors and matrices around.
Memory leaks could have been avoided, but still, one should be
careful when using arrays.
