#8611: nofib’s cacheprof’s allocations nondeterminisitic ------------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: nomeata | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: NoFib benchmark suite | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Test Case: | Difficulty: Unknown Blocking: | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: ------------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by nomeata): I could not find the cause immediately, so I’ll report my partial findings here. * It is not the IO part. Inlining the input as one big string, and skipping the output, does not make the symptom disappear. * Ticky-ticky profiling yields identical results for the cacheprof modules, the only difference is in the global counters (`HEAP_CHK_ctr` and `STK_CHK_ctr`) to be precise. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8611#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
