Not yet. Ilya, starting a GHC wiki page might be a good thing to do. Some stuff here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Compiler/Demand Short summary: * I'm about to commit a big patch that Ilya has developed. Mainly it separates strictness from absence analysis more orthogonally, and is simpler and more solid. Nothing truly fundamental, but a thorough house-cleaning. This is a basis for upcoming: * Improve demand analysis: #6070, #5949, #5775, #4267, #5302, #6087 * Cardinality analysis, which checks how *often* something is used. Branch = "cardinality". Ilya is working on that. Trac #7520 * Single-constructor CPR: Branch = "cpr-sum-types". Trac #5075, 3138 * Nested CPR: #2289, #2387, #1600 lots of fun Simon | -----Original Message----- | From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] | On Behalf Of Johan Tibell | Sent: 16 January 2013 17:53 | To: [email protected] | Subject: New demand analysis | | Hi, | | I'm curious about the new demand analyser.
