#13654: Optimize casMutVar# for single-threaded runtime -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: (none) Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.4.1 Component: Runtime | Version: 8.2.1-rc1 System | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Runtime Unknown/Multiple | performance bug Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When using the non-threaded RTS, `stg_casMutVarzh`, `stg_atomicModifyMutVarzh`, etc., shouldn't need to actually use atomic instructions, but they seem to do so. I believe this makes them substantially slower than necessary in that context. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13654 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
