#10223: Cleanup `mk/build.mk.sample` -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: thomie | Owner: thomie Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.12.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by thomie): Todo: * figure out the `-H64m` story. See https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail /glasgow-haskell-users/2015-May/025917.html. I found this bit of wisdom by Simon Marlow, https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2014-March/004344.html:
Just wondering: that '-H64m' is from some old times (pre 2007?). GHC seems to eat way more RAM nowadays. Is this bit relevant at all?
It still speeds up compilation a bit, but a larger -H value might be more appropriate > for today's machines.
