I'm seeing some weirdness here.  My code does this:

   omap <- atomically $ (newArray_ (0,n-1) :: STM (TArray Int Int))

This gives a stack overflow when n is one million.

I can't reproduce this with ghci-7.0.2 (base-4.3.1.0, array-0.3.0.2 and stm-2.2.0.1). What version of ghc/ghci are you using?

I can't reproduce it either, using ghci-6.12.3, base-4.2.0.2, array-0.3.0.1 and stm-2.2.0.1. However it takes a loooong time and a lot of CPU time =). Cheers, -- Felipe.
