#8960: SpecConstr usage explodes beyond 4GB with GHC 7.8.1 rc 2 ---------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: MichalGajda | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Compile-time crash | Unknown/Multiple Test Case: cabal install hPDB | Difficulty: Unknown Blocking: | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: 7068, 7898 ---------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Changes (by quantheory): * related: => 7068, 7898 Comment: I guess SpecConstr seems to cause this sort of problem at times, so adding related bugs. I'm confused about -O2 vs. -O3, though. I thought that -O2 was the maximum, so -O3 and -O2 should be exactly the same? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8960#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
