I tested, and this implementation actually performs better if the spine is maintained lazily, so we'll test that version.
May I request that, unless there's a significant speedup from using a strict spine, that you use a lazy spine where possible. The reason being that lazy data structures work much better in a parallel setting: a strict spine is a course-grained lock on the whole operation, whereas a lazy spine corresponds to a fine-grained locking strategy.
Apart from this, as you were ;) Cheers, Simon _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
