#12492: internal error: allocation of 1048608 bytes too large -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: erikd | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.2 Component: Runtime System | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by erikd): Looking at function `scheduleHandleHeapOverflow` in `rts/Schedule.c` it looks like its not possible to allocate a single block larger than `252 * 4096` bytes. Is that right? I *know* I've allocated `ByteString`s bigger than that or are `ByteString`s allocated in a different way? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12492#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
