Scroll down in that section I linked to before:

you are right again. so, that remains: you shouldn't suppose that user have read 90's GC paper. give a short excerpt of it: how generational GC works and how memory usage converts to memory footprint. then descriptions of RTS options will serve as "modifications" to this "baseline" one minor update: manual said "For each garbage collection, we print: * How many bytes we allocated this garbage collection." i think it should be "How many bytes we allocated *SINCE* last garbage collection." -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
