Joachim: if you're building with DEBUG, that will adversely affect the
performance tests, so you probably shouldn't run those.

ah, ok, sorry, that’s it. My bad.

With these you mean perf/compiler, but probably not all perf tests,
right? Could we mark those tests as with
         when(compiler_debugged(),skip())
then?

Yes, that would be good.

At the risk of repeating my self, and especially with a ever
growing number of contributors to GHC, especially new ones, the test
should should give reproducible and correct results.

Of course! If you find cases where that's not true, please go ahead and fix them.

Cheers,
Simon
