#9539: TQueue can lead to thread starvation -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: jwlato | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Core Libraries | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: stm 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 YitzGale): In the case where you have a small number of initial writes, a single read, and then many writes, doesn't this queue degrade to {{{O(n^2)}}}? Because the read effectively bounds the buffer to a small maximum size. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9539#comment:17 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
