Still todo: * `-Ndiv<n>`: use the number of processors divided by <n> * `-Nsub<n>`: use the number of processors minus <n> * release notes * tests (use `getNumCapabilities` from `GHC.Conc.Sync`) Maybe you could take care of those as well? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10728#comment:11 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
