Comment:
I tested just now with ghc-6.13.20100629-x86_64-unknown-linux.tar.bz2.
Watching the ghci process memory usage using top, I see that every time I
:load Hello.hs, the resident memory usage increases by 12-20kB, and
virtual memory usage increases by >100kB.
I would take a heap profile from repeatedly loading as Simon did but I am
not sure how.
Let me know what more I can do to diagnose what's going on.
