The size of a DateTime is a single Long. Don't confuse the size of various
properties with the underlying storage. The only real value stored is
DateTime.Ticks, the other properties are derived from DateTime.Ticks.

Note Prior to the .NET Framework 2.0, a DateTime consisted solely of a ticks
field, which is a 62-bit unsigned field that contains the number of ticks
that represent the date and time. The value of the ticks field can be
obtained with the Ticks property.
