Even though advertised as parallel programming tools, parMap and other functions that work in parallel over *sequential* access data structures (i.e. linked lists.) We want flat, strict, unpacked data structures to get good performance out of parallel algorithms. DPH, repa, and even vector show the way. -- Johan _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
