#11382: Optimize Data.Char -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Core | Version: 7.10.3 Libraries | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Runtime Unknown/Multiple | performance bug Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Many of the predicates in `Data.Char` do full Unicode category lookups which turns out to be quite expensive. Ideally we would handle some of the more common ASCII characters with cheaper tests before falling back to the full Unicode treatment. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11382 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
