I can only speculate, but since you emphasise deep forcing, I wonder how deep is the structure returned from the worker thread? Could it be deep enough to hurt CPU cache performance (compared to an unforced version where production and consumption are interleaved)? _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
