On the haskell-cafe as well as the beginners mailing lists, there frequently (for some value of frequent) are posts where the author inquires about a badly performing programme, in the form of stack overflows, space leaks or slowness.
Often this is because they compiled their programme without optimisations, simply recompiling with -O or -O2 yields a decently performing programme. So I wonder, should ghc compile with -O1 by default? What would be the downsides? _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
