I agree.
I find compilation time on things with large data structures, such as
working with the GHC AST via the GHC API get pretty slow.
To the point where I have had to explicitly disable optimisation on HaRe,
otherwise the build takes too long.

Hi everyone,
I've been running nofib a few times recently to see the effect of some changes on compile time (not the runtime of the compiled program). And I've started wondering how representative nofib is when it comes to measuring compile time and compiler allocations? It seems that most of the nofib programs compile really quickly...
Is there some collections of modules/libraries/applications that were put together with the purpose of benchmarking GHC itself and I just haven't seen/found it?
If not, maybe we should create something? IMHO it sounds reasonable to have separate benchmarks for: - Performance of GHC itself. - Performance of the code generated by GHC.
Thanks, Michal
