My current understanding is now that the cost-centres are, modulo bugs, removed when they aren't wrapping any work. I don't think we have any examples here of erroneous cost-centre removal, do you agree?

Well, this ticket iself is an example of erroneous cost-centre removal, isn't it?

To be more precise, I claim that there are no simplifier bugs here; all of the `scc`s that are removed (by the simplifier) in the examples above are ok to remove. If you disagree, can you point to one above? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5889#comment:27 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
