I assume this means that GHC >= 7.4.1 should not mention -auto-all, and that -fprof-auto should be suggested instead. {{{ $ ghc --help ... -prof Compile for cost-centre profiling (add -auto-all for automagic cost-centres on all top-level functions) ... }}} [=#r1 [1]] https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/profiling.ht... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12084 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
