#10728: Add e.g. "-N<=4" in addition to the fixed "-N4" and variable "-N" RTS options -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: rrnewton | Owner: MarcelineVQ Type: feature request | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.10.2 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: newcomer Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #9221, #8224 | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D1650, Wiki Page: | Phab:D1677 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonmar): Ugh, I think `-maxN` is worse than `-Nmax` because of the weird overlap with `-m`. I think `-Nmax<n>` was completely fine (but I was too late!). The documentation could read "use at most <n> processors". -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10728#comment:21 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
