Alright, numbers are in: {{{ Min -0.0% -0.0% -7.1% -6.5% -1.8% Max +0.0% +0.0% +2.1% +1.5% +19.8% Geometric Mean -0.0% -0.0% -0.6% -0.5% +0.2% }}} so it seems to be worth it. Not pushing quite yet: Assuming we make the cheapness configurable in `primops.txt.pp`, what primops should not be cheap? To me all of them look cheap (e.g. arithmetic) or are side-effecting (like `copyArray#`, in which case the `primOpIsCheap` information hopefully has no effect. So it seems to me that we do not need to a flag in `primops.txt.pp` just yet; maybe something will show up later. (Marking as for review without a patch because the patch is trivial; it is this question that need to be reviewed.) -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3034#comment:14> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

It would also simplify `CoreArity` (no need for the `ae_bndrs` field). (Or course the scrunitee must not be expensive; I guard this using the `ae_cheap_fn`. If I don't do that, fluid improves allocation by -2.3%, but of course it's wrong. In most cases, though, FloatOut will have ensured that the scrutinee is cheap) I’ll need to run another round of nofib, with an unloaded machine, to ensure that the runtimes are still ok... and here it is {{{ Min -0.1% -1.9% -3.0% -2.9% 0.0% Max +0.0% +0.0% +3.5% +2.2% +3.8% Geometric Mean -0.0% -0.0% -0.4% -0.4% +0.0% }}} Runtime varies a bit, with a slight tendency to an improvement.
