#7606: Stride scheduling for Haskell threads with priorities ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by ezyang): I wonder if we're hitting this: {{{ /* The size argument we are given includes all the per-thread * overheads: * * - The TSO structure * - The STACK header * * This is so that we can use a nice round power of 2 for the * default stack size (e.g. 1k), and if we're allocating lots of * threads back-to-back they'll fit nicely in a block. It's a bit * of a benchmark hack, but it doesn't do any harm. */ }}} -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7606#comment:17 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
