Hi Simon, Thank you for explanation. I think I now understand why -H behaves that way.

An experiment shows my program benefits from larger -H value, at least with a fixed -A. Also -A256M is much better than -A1M in my case, perhaps because decreasing the number of minor GCs is very important to the performance. -- Takano Akio > > Cheers, > Simon > _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
