#7763: Resource limits for Haskell ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: ezyang | Owner: simonmar Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Profiling | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by igloo): Generally, this looks OK to me, although I've only skimmed the actual patches. If I understand correctly, this would also allow users to programmatically create cost centres used in heap profiles too? But for that, rather than {{{ newCC :: IO CostCentre }}} we'd presumably want {{{ newCC :: String -> IO CostCentre }}} There are also a couple of scary looking comments: {{{ // XXX Synchronization??? // XXX wrong! }}} -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7763#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
