#12506: Compile time regression in GHC 8. -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: deech | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- This bug is entirely reproducible but unfortunately takes some setup. I don't have a minimal example. The regression is happening in FLTKHS (https://github.com/deech/fltkhs) the Haskell bindings to the FLTK(http://fltk.org) toolkit, and in particular to this GUI (https://github.com/deech/fltkhs/blob/master/images /tree-complex-windows.png). In GHC 7.8, it taks 5-9 seconds to compile and link in 7.10.3, that goes up to 12-15 seconds and finally in GHC 8 it shoots up to 45 seconds. While these numbers come from my i7, 16GB RAM Linux laptop, the compile time regression is proportionally reproducible across machines and operating systems. Here are the steps to reproduce it * Install FLTK Please follow the instructions here (https://github.com/deech/fltkhs #linux-and-bsd) but only the first set which about for installing FLTK 1.3. * Clone the repo with the offending application: `git clone https://github.com/deech/fltkhs-fluid-demos` * Build the application and reproduce the problem: - `cabal install fltkhs` - At the root of the repo do `cabal build fltkhs-fluid-tree` -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12506> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

It does not happen when `ApplicativeDo` is not activated. It also does not happen when the pattern match line is changed to {{{#!hs [] <- pure [] }}} For completeness, the compiler used by `stack` is that which comes with `nightly-2017-08-10`.
