I have a very memory intensive application. It seems that the timing of my application depend very much on the precise setting of -H...M in the runtime system (-H2000M seems to work best, computation time becomes a third of what I get when I pass no -H option). I conjecture that this good behaviour is the result of gc happening at the right time. So I wondered: if I can one when is the right time, is it possible then to trigger GC explicitly from within the Haskell code?
there is performGC: http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/base/latest/doc/html/System-Mem.... Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim "nomeata" Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de | nomeata@debian.org | GPG: 0x4743206C xmpp: nomeata@joachim-breitner.de | http://www.joachim-breitner.de/
