Dear ghc friend or developper,
I am using the ghc profiler to do time profiling, and sadly cannot get the relevant detail out of the tool.
I compile the program using ghc -auto -caf-all -prof and get an exectuable. All that is fine and I can also use other compile options.
When running, the document suggests that one uses
+RTS -p -RTS, and again that works fine. Unfortunately it only delivers percentages of time, no raw ticks. So if a particluar CCS took less than 0.1 percent it will not occur.
So, one should be able to use -P instead to obtain actual figures as well, but the resulting .prof file is identical to the -p one.
Bug? or is it me??
No, it's a bug. Fixed now. Cheers, Simon
