#10067: The Read Integer instance is too slow -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: redneb | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Core Libraries | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Runtime | Unknown/Multiple performance bug | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D645 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by ekmett): I have no principled objection to dramatically reducing the asymptotic cost of parsing integers assuming of course in good faith that the patch works. That said, it seems like it'd be a good idea to apply the same reasoning to the new `Natural` type that Herbert added in 7.10 as well. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10067#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
