yep, sounds great to me :-) although with some hacks one can already have a poor mans real time interface for heap profiling: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/hp2ps.html#id2677301
I agree that the effect of laziness can be very hard to grasp, sometimes it even feels that I traded the annoying side effects from imperative programming to "lazy effects" in functional programming... Can't seem to have my cake and lazily eat it :-) On Sun, Mar 22, 2009 at 10:03 AM, Patai Gergely <[email protected]>wrote: > Hello all, > > I entered a little proposal in the issue tracker: > > http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/ticket/1570 > > As I see it, the graphical part could be a warm-up exercise with an > already useful product, and interaction with the rts would be the actual > challenge.
