Stack space overflow: current size 8388608 bytes. Use `+RTS -Ksize -RTS' to increase it.
I want to find out the culprit function and rewrite it tail-recursively. Is there a way to find out which function is causing this error other than reviewing the code manually?
It's possible that building your program with profiling and then running with "+RTS -xc" will print a useful call stack.
Does this help, really? I've tried that occasionally, but can't really say it's ever helped pinpoint the problem. (Not complaining, stack traces are hard in Haskell.) I generally heap-profile (often with the -hd option), most stack overflows will also retain heap data (i.e. a stack of (+) operations will point to all the numbers as well), which should give you an idea of where to look. -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
