#222: Windows installation of Haskell Platform is very slow on adding things to
PATH
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: JasonGross | Owner: refold
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: Windows installer | Keywords:
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
HaskellPlatform-2012.4.0.0-setup.exe is very slow at adding things to
PATH. It seemed to take it about 10-15 minutes to add about 5 things to
PATH.* What is it doing? It did not seem to be using an unusually high
amount of CPU or RAM during this time, though I wasn't watching carefully.
If this behavior is expected, it would be nice if "Show Details" gave a
more detailed explanation of what it's doing when adding things to path,
so I don't worry that it's frozen or having problems.
*My PATH, after installation, is `C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
