#15051: -split-objs generates excessively many files on Windows -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: kanetw | Owner: Phyx- Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.5 (CodeGen) | Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: Type of failure: Compile-time | Unknown/Multiple performance bug | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by Phyx-): * failure: None/Unknown => Compile-time performance bug * component: Compiler => Compiler (CodeGen) * architecture: x86_64 (amd64) => Unknown/Multiple Comment: This is beyond annoying. The windows tarballs are useless after this change. A full compile takes a day and a half in validate mode. even compiling a simple module now takes seconds. So I'm just going to kill SPLIT_OBJS as this change has effectively made it useless. Compiling a simple Cabal module alone takes 900 fork/exec calls. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15051#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
