would guarantee speed in every case. Or I can SPECIALISE the function, then the function will only be called, but with polymorphism overhead eliminated. This would only work for a restricted range of types. I'd like to have a pragma, that tells GHC to specialise a function for every type it is called with.
me too. btw, this already present in jhc. inlining doesn't work in any complex case since recursive functions can't be inlined
GHC inlines recursive functions, too, otherwise it could not turn 'foldl' and friends into plain machine loops.
