#7606: Stride scheduling for Haskell threads with priorities ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by simonmar): Correct me if I'm wrong, but in the "slow" case you're just doing one more major GC than in the fast case, right? The extra thread just pushed allocation over the threshold for the next GC. If that's the case, then this is not a problem at all. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7606#comment:22 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
