#7418: Writing to stderr is 7x slower than writing to stdout ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: SimonHengel | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: Runtime System Version: 7.6.1 | Keywords: Os: Linux | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Failure: Runtime performance bug | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: ------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
Comment(by parcs): By default `stdout` is buffered and `stderr` is not. If you do `hSetBuffering stderr LineBuffering` in the second program then it's just as fast as the first program. QuickCheck should probably be patched to enable buffering on `stderr`. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7418#comment:1> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
