RE: [Haskell-cafe] Re: (Chaos) [An interesting toy]

| The source code has explicit monomorphic types all over it; I would | expect GHC to be able to optimise out any method calls. (OTOH, I'm not a | GHC expert... Simon? Don?) Full monomorphisation is a whole-program optimisation and GHC isn't (yet) a whole-program compiler. Overloaded functions are indeed specialised for the types at which they are called *in the module they are defined*. Simon
