Re: [Haskell-cafe] 7.10.2 : Compilation slowdown.

I'm not using any -O* flags and I'm not using Template Haskell. Not sure if this means anything but I do have the context-stack set to 220. Thanks! -deech On Wed, Sep 30, 2015 at 8:47 AM, Carter Schonwald < carter.schonwald@gmail.com> wrote:

Have you checked how changing the optimization level affects build times? Are you using template Haskell?

Hi all, Since upgrading to 7.10.2 from 7.8.4 I'm seeing a significant increase in compilation time. I understand this is a known issue but since I'm seeing something like a 3x slowdown but not across the board, I thought I'd ask.

Compilation time for the library I'm writing has remained about the same. I am seeing the slowdown when compiling executables that use the library. There are no other dependencies except base so I'm guessing it something in my library causing the issue.

I lean heavily on the FFI, OverlappingInstances and HList style programming in my library which leads me to believe that one of these is causing it. I am seeing no difference in compilation speeds by adding the per instance OVERLAPPING pragmas.

Can anyone advise or instruct me on how to profile the compiler?

Thanks! -deech
