[Haskell] Google Summer of Code Help and suggestions

2009-03-24 Thread Maria Gabriela Valdes
Hi, my name is Maria Gabriela Valdes, i'm a new member of the mailing list,
but i'm not new using haskell. Currently i'm studying computer science in
Venezuela.

I'm writing because i want to know more about de haskell community. I'm
looking foward to knowing a lot of knew people and learing a lot more about
haskell.

Hi,

your post gave me the idea to profile the memory usage of the generated
binary with valgrind.

In this release of jhc, the problem is handled in a quite radical way.
It seems that no free() is ever emitted, the allocated heap memory is
not released.
Well, this classifies like a bug, I guess.

On the bright side, when I removed all memory deallocation from the C
version, supposing (naively maybe) that it would radicaly reduce the
difference in performance, jhc's still ran twice faster.

-hide-package in a Makefile.

Cabal handles this automatically for you, by hiding everything by
default, and then enabling only those things explicitly listed.
