Hi Ganesh and Mark, I just sent a pull request to the HTTP library [1] that dramatically improves the performance of "cabal update" (80s -> 8s on my machine). It would be nice if we could make a new release soon and compile the next Platform's "cabal-install" against it.
Mark, any concerns? [1]: https://github.com/haskell/HTTP/pull/48 _______________________________________________ Haskell-platform mailing list Haskell-platform@projects.haskell.org http://projects.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell-platform
