I have better than 75% success locating the source of these bugs with the following command: grep '+1' *.hs *.lhs Reason: Lazy arithmetic can easily cause you to build thunks that look like this: 1+1+1+1+ .... + 1 + 0 which take O(n) heap to store and O(n) stack to evaluate (with constant factors of around 10-20). If you've already tried this approach, the tolols SimonM mentions are well worth using. -- Alastair Reid _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
