It would be amazingly helpful if someone (anyone) could diagnose a bit. It may be a bug in GHC but it may also be a bug in the pragmas in a library. If someone can produce evidence for the former, I’ll gladly look at it.

Maybe repa is inlining too much? We need insight.

The file making memory explode is Graphics.Rendering.OpenGL.Raw.Functions<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/OpenGLRaw-2.4.1.0/docs/src/Graphics-Rendering-OpenGL-Raw-Functions.html>. With -O0 it uses 600 MB. The file is really huge, but I could compile it with prior versions of ghc.

What I did was: build GHC HEAD/7.8.4 with build flavor 'prof' then get the haskell-src-exts sources, install the dependencies and finally add +RTS -p -RTS to the cabal file and compile it, the resulting ghc.prof contains the profiling information. For anyone interested about CallArity slowness, the problem is tracked in https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10293 Cheers, Michal On Wed, Apr 15, 2015 at 1:40 AM Richard Eisenberg <e...@cis.upenn.edu<mailto:e...@cis.upenn.edu>> wrote: I've pasted Michal's numbers in #9630, which seems like a good place to track this. Michal, would you mind fleshing out a bit precisely what you did to get those numbers? That would be helpful (though you've already been very helpful indeed in getting the data together)!
