Oh, yes, tried M-x ghc-check-syntax on a 3 line program, and ghc-modi took 700m of resident memory. On 02.05.2014 14:17, Kazu Yamamoto (山本和彦) wrote:
Elliot,
One slight concern I've been running into recently is the memory usage of ghc-modi. I've been on a rampage over the last few days trying to keep the Chart library from OOMing on my laptop, and this generally involves killing one or more ghc-modi instances with 1GB+ of resident memory. If anyone else can confirm this is an issue (and it isn't already a known issue/necessary evil), I'd be happy to file an issue on Github and do some preliminary work as to why this is happening.
Please record this space leak to a github issue. You are the second person who are taking about this. Though I have not experienced such a space leak, it must exit in some cases. Let's try to fix it.
