In the master branch I had a list file to read, so I use mapM_ to call rCount as blow

mapM_ (\(x,y) -> rCount num readhandle1 x y) handlePairList

If I change my Map to Strict and call rCount directly( don’t use mapM_ ) the memory will not swell.

I can understand why lazy Map will cause swell, but I don’t know why mapM_ will cause swell? Does the mapM_ is lazy too? Any strict alternative I can use?

I think you need to provide us with more details about exactly what this mapM_ is doing.
