Is there a way to profile stack usage using GHCi (without compiling) to find the problem?
+RTS -xt -RTS will include the stack in a heap profile. See
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/prof-heap.html
It will show you the size of the stack over time, but not the contents of the stack.
BTW, has anyone considered making a stackless Haskell implementation? For example, SML compiler SML/NJ allocates "stack" frames on the heap. Best regards, Tomasz
