Best way is to use ildasm to look at the IL - look for the "box" operation.
There are lots of ways that a struct can be inadvertantly boxed. Perhaps the most common ways are using Console.WriteLine without a custom ToString(), and also where a struct is a member of a parent class. Here are some related links:

If I run the 'struct Move' version for the depth 4 mirrored, approx 22MB of heap allocations occur, with 260kB relocated and Final heap 1.2MB. So a lot of creation / destruction
If I run the 'class Move' version, there are 11MB of Heap allocations, 174kB relocated and Final Heap Bytes 495kB. So half the allocations.... |
That could definitely explain the speed-up when converting. It looks like the struct is being boxed and possibly copied as well. We should be able to remove this, at which point the related heap allocations will go to zero and you should see another speed-up of maybe 20-40%.
In addition, what happens to the speed when you define Move as a class, and then store in an array rather than a List? Does that also give you a small speed-up?
