Awesome,
I have been playing with GHC 7.6.0 until today and been very happy. Btw. isn't this the version that officially includes "-fnew-codegen" / HOOPL?
Because the new codegen is optimizing the my ADPfusion library nicely. I lost 50% speed with new features, gained 100% with new codegen, meaning new features come for free ;-)
I suspect that you'll find that the new codegen doesn't work 100% perfectly in 7.6, although I don't know the details - perhaps it just isn't as fast as it could be. It'll be the default in 7.8, though. Thanks Ian
