#12576: Large Address space is unenable-able on Windows. -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Phyx- | 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: #12573 #12495 Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Autoconf file changes have made it impossible to enable `USE_LARGE_ADDRESS_SPACE` for Windows, as the `--enable-large-address- space` flag is only respected on Darwin. The general case now depends on the presence of MADV_FREE to enable large address space support. Which means all possibility of enabling this feature on Windows have been removed. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12576 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
