There seems to be a performance cliff of sorts, which is very annoying when trying to keep tabs on performance, but probably not a high priority blocker for the release, especially as it is likely not a simple bug introduced by any single commit. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12964#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
