#9675: Unreasonable memory usage on large data structures -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Polarina | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Linux | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Type of failure: Compile- | Difficulty: Unknown time performance bug | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): That sounds very plausible -- thank you! Do de-clutter when you are done :-). In fact if you grep for `seq` you'll find a variety of `seqs`, some of which probably do nothing useful while costing execution time. You are in an excellent position to find out, if you feel up to doing so. Really each should be accompanied with a story for why it is there.
