#6135: Unboxed Booleans -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: benl | Owner: jstolarek Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.4.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Testcase: | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: #605 -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Comment(by jstolarek): Regarding performance, are the results for `filter` shown [http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/PrimBool#Benchmarks here] convincing, or do we want a more sophisticated example? These results do show that it is possible to get a significant speedup, even with very simple functions. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/6135#comment:63 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
