#8189: Default to infinite stack size? -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Runtime | Version: 7.6.3 System | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 hour) Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: Runtime | Related Tickets: crash | Test Case: | Blocking: | -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): I see the issue with `total_allocations`. If you are hesitant to set a default heap limit I certainly won't disagree. It's not worth exposing potential bugs just to disable the stack limit. A larger default stack limit, on the other hand, is quite reasonable and accomplishes nearly all of what I initially set out to do. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8189#comment:19 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
