#7763: Resource limits for Haskell ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: ezyang | Owner: simonmar Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Profiling | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by simonmar): I haven't reviewed the patch itself yet, but I have two high-level concerns (neither of which is a deal-breaker): * I'm not convinced that the changed semantics of cost-centre stacks works. However, I'm not convinced that the currently implemented semantics of cost-centre stacks works either. * I'm not sure that people will want to pay the overhead of profiling to get resource limits. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7763#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
