- I still think we should turn on --slow mode for our buildbots soon, but this will cause noise. I'd really like some inputs on this - maybe someone would like to help clean up the 'slow' vaildate failures? Bonus points for this, since you don't even have to
That's a great goal, but --slow enables compiler debug assertions, which seem to trigger real errors (full log of failures attached).
Also note that when debugging is on, tests that call `compiler_stats_num_field` are currently skipped https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/master/testsuite/driver/testlib.py#L305:L308. This applies to almost all tests in `tests/perf/compiler`.
