#8199: Get rid of HEAP_ALLOCED ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: feature | Status: new request | Milestone: 7.10.1 Priority: normal | Version: 7.7 Component: | Keywords: Compiler | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Resolution: | Difficulty: Project (more than a week) Operating System: | Blocked By: 5435 Unknown/Multiple | Related Tickets: Type of failure: | None/Unknown | Test Case: | Blocking: | ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Comment (by simonmar): Wow, I'm amazed you managed to get binary sizes to be smaller than before. So the only concerns now are those few strange looking results: cryptarithm, circsim, and I notice that spellcheck is not as good as before (runtime -6.4% before, -1.0% now). Also do you have any idea what is driving the increase in total memory (+100% for cryptarithm, +21% for circsim)? If startup time has increased, it would be a good idea to check on the startup time of GHC itself again, to give us an idea of the impact for a large program. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8199#comment:35 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
