Uh, GPH exists, doesn't it? So you can get "parallelism" if you're after performance. The only implementation appears to be based on PVM, so I expect some overhead on SMPs, although I haven't gotten around to actually try it yet. I don't know if or how you can mix the two paradigms. There's also an implementation using threads for asynchronous calls to Win32 libraries, if I understand things correctly. A full thread-based parallel implementation might (or might not) be a logical next step. -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants _______________________________________________ Haskell mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
