Parallel GC seems to have throughput problems on more than 24-32 cores. See this Reddit thread about - https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/85vwlq/our_lovely_ghc_parallel_gc_... There you may find .eventlog file and PNG with a screenshot. May be it's time to resurrect Concurrent GC project again? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14981 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
