I have an accept-loop:
do (conn, _saddr) <- accept sock forkIO $ initializeConnection conn
Which allocates memory iff accept allocates, I suppose. To test the theory, is there a way I can force an allocation that won't get optimized away?
t <- getCPUTime let n = t `rem` 12345 s = sum [1 .. n] s `seq` doSomething could work. Another option is to insert a threadDelay 0 in your forever loops to enable context-switching if some other thread is runnable.
I'm not quite sure how I ought to proceed. I'm still very open to debugging tools and techniques I could use to approach the problem!
