That's a very good point. If we turn the IVar into a pure value, then it loses its "dirty" bit and the GC no longer has to check whether it's pointing to a newer generation. But this is getting into territory that's pretty murky to me. _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
