Hello,
I'm trying some haskell scripting. I'm writing a script to print some information from a zip archive. The zip-archive library does look nice but the performance of zip-archive/lazy bytestring doesn't seem to scale.
Executing :
eRelativePath $ head $ zEntries archive
on an archive of around 12 MB with around 20 files yields
Stack space overflow: current size 8388608 bytes.
The script in question can be found at :

I'm using the latest version of haskell platform. Are these libaries not production ready, or am I doing something terribly wrong ?
I'm not familiar with the library, but I have a sneaking suspicion that you're doing something terribly wrong, namely keeping the entire archive in memory rather than using it lazily. -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
