It doesn't work under solaris and under linux [1] my nightly compilation jobs are "killed" every tuesday morning (!) for some reason that i cannot reproduce. I suspect the threaded RTS and heavy load. I had no such problems with ghc-6.4.1 before.
A process can be "Killed" by the operating system if the machine runs out of virtual memory. I suspect someone else is running a cron job on Tuesdays that fills memory. It is unlikely to be (only) ghc's fault. Regards, Malcolm
