#8099: Alternate syntax for indicating when a function is "fully applied" for purposes of inlining -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: jberryman | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 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 basvandijk):
Can I encourage the other cc folks to say what their use-case is
I remember that by eta abstracting the definitions in [http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/vector/0.10.0.1/doc/html /Data-Vector-Generic.html Data.Vector.Generic] I could really speedup the [https://github.com/basvandijk/vector- bytestring/blob/master/bench/bench.hs benchmarks] in `vector-bytestring`. If there's some nice syntax to make eta conversion easier it would be cheaper to make this change. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8099#comment:12 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
