Re: [commit: ghc] master: Per-thread allocation counters and limits (b0534f7)

According to google, 2^32 bytes = 4GB, I think that is more memory than a 32 bit machine can handle anyway? Maybe alloc_limit should be 32 bits on a 32 bit machine, and 64 bit on a 64 bit machine? On 4 May 2014 16:06, Johan Tibell wrote:

Does it make sense to have 64-bit alloc_limit on 32-bit box?

I think so. You allocate 2^32 bytes pretty quickly.
