Would that solve the problem?
Yes, switching to per-file dependencies in Hadrian would be easy if we had such flag. However, per-package vs per-file is a bit of a trade-off. Per-package analysis will likely be faster for the full build (you do analysis only once instead of for each file separately), whereas per-file analysis will be faster for incremental builds. (It is likely that the reduction of performance for the full build when switching to the per-file approach will be negligible, but we'll need to check this.) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16253#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
