As I heard, 6.4 version of the Haskell using C-- backend and make lots of the resulting code perfomance (programs executed faster). If so, does any test/comparison with other languages available? Thank you in advance, Regards, /Alexandre.
Think this should really go to glasgow-haskell-users... If this is true - how do I get ghc to use C--, and is it really faster than using gcc as a backend with all the bells & whistles turned on (for a pentium-III) something like "-O3 -mcpu=pentium3 -march=pentium3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -ftracer -fno-crossjumping -mfpmath=sse,387 -ffast-math -fsched-spec-load -fprefetch-loop-arrays -maccumulate-outgoing-args -fmove-all-movables -freduce-all-givs" Keean.

Yoy might want to read the "A MLton / C-- Experiment" thread on the mlton mailinglist: http://mlton.org/pipermail/mlton/2005-March/026850.html The latest post in that thread has a number of benchmarks comparing mlton's native, C, and C-- backend: http://mlton.org/pipermail/mlton/2005-March/026884.html -- Guido
Guido, thank you for the reply. Actually I subscribed to the mlton maillist, and I read that thread. I am interested in Haskell results, but it seems that nor developers, nor users really care about that... Regards, /Alexandre. On Mar 29, 2005, at 12:07, Guido Kollerie wrote:
