I have a program with about 220 modules. One of these modules takes _much_ longer to compile than the others (several minutes longer). I don't understand why. It compiled much faster with GHC 8.8.3, but got orders of magnitude slower when I changed to GHC 8.10.2. I don't understand why, since I don't think there is nothing special about the module - e.g. no type-level programming. Is there any good way to "profile" the stack or cabal compilation process to at least get an intuition for what takes so long? Note that the module is in the middle of the dependency tree of my program, so it is not viable to separate it out and compile it manually with GHC. It's slow even when I pass '--fast' to stack which should disable the optimiser, so I guess the type checker may be spending a lot of time on handling the admittedly large amount of typeclass constraints I have on some of my definitions. I'm mostly looking for techniques and tools I can also use next time this problem occurs, not the specific problem here, but if anyone's curious, the module in question is this one: https://github.com/diku-dk/futhark/blob/master/src/Futhark/Pass/ExtractKerne... -- \ Troels /\ Henriksen
