To fix these problems you have to think carefully about strictness and demand in your program. For memory we have heap profilers to help out, but we don't have I/O descriptor profilers for lazy I/O!
Surely I/O descriptors are just a type of heap-value, and as such can be profiled in the normal way (producer, retainer, etc), just like any other heap construction? Regards, Malcolm
