However: now that Simon's spent a bunch of time experimenting with the runtime's GC settings and found a set that's mitigated much of our problem, other things are pushing their way up my priority list. Between that and an upcoming holiday, I'm probably not going to get back to this for a few weeks. But I'd be happy to discuss my ideas with anybody else who's interested in similar things, even if just to know what would be useful to others.
What settings are you using, out of interest?
What do you guys think about setting up a separate mailing list for this? I have to admit, I don't follow haskell-cafe much due to the high volume of the list. (Thus my late presence in this thread.) I would be willing to keep much closer track of a low-volume list that dealt with only GC stuff.
Please feel free to discuss on glasgow-haskell-users@ which is lower volume. I don't particularly like setting up new mailing lists unless there's likely to be an ongoing need - we have quite a few defunct lists on haskell.org now.
I'd even be open to providing hosting for the list, using my little baby mailing list manager written in Haskell (mhailist). It's primitive, but it does handle subscribing, unsubscribing and forwarding of messages.
Sure, that would be fine too. Cheers, Simon
