Hi,

There's something strange going on in this example. For instance, setting (-M) heap limits as low as 40K seems to have no effect, even though the program easily uses more than 8G.
Apparently the only things it allocates is stack chunks. I managed to produce a version of this program that runs approximately as fast as the Ocaml one by manually unrolling the main loop [1], but it still has to be run with +RTS -kc1M to avoid the memory leak.
