If you are looking for a way to ensure you'll have enough memory available for an operation, use MemoryFailPoint.

With this, through a using, you can define a region in which you will need a certain amount of memory. If that isn't available, it will throw a recoverable InsufficientMemoryException.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.runtime.memoryfailpoint.aspx for more information.
