I have a project that depends on happy/alex to generate parsers. (https://github.com/TOSPIO/pyn)
Running `cabal repl` on my laptop (Gentoo Linux amd64) with 16GiB memory ended up eating up all memory and eventually resulted in kernel panic.
`cabal build` works fine. Problem arises when compiling the giant happy- generated dist/build/Language/Python/Parser/Parse.hs file
also `cabal repl --ghc-options=-fobject-code` works fine.
