#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): So we have to solve the unloading problem first, right? Also did you find any way to reduce that 5-6% binary size overhead? Before bumping the performance thresholds you should check whether they're reasonable. Compare against the unpatched compiler (sometimes it is right up against the upper limit anyway). Increasing allocation by 10% sounds like a *lot* for this change. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8199#comment:29 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
