Hello.

I have the following code:

char[] unitStack = new char[256];
unitStack.length = 0;

Does it make sense from viewpoint of simplifying memory management?  If I
enlarge the size, the array won't be reallocated?

That is equivalent to reserving 256 chars. Enlarging the unitStack will 
not cause reallocation for at least the first 256 entries.
