#8901: (very) bad inline heuristics -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: heisenbug | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by simonpj): Not necessarily. It's not hard to give GHC a heart attack by inlining too aggressively. If you can exhibit a case where you think GHC is inlining where it shouldn't I'll gladly look at it. For example you mention `formatTime`; can you give a test case? Eg a test file with 10+ calls, that all inline when they shouldn't?
