Comment(by simonmar):

 Replying to [comment:5 igloo]:
 > If you have dynamic-by-default and run "ghci -v" then you'll see it
 linking a `.so` with no content every time you evaluate anything.

 Sure, that needs fixing.

 If there are cases where the new dynamic-by-default GHCi is less
 responsive than a static GHCi then I think that needs investigating - in
 the small experiments I've done on x86_64/Linux it seems to be faster.
