Dear Haskellers and Camlers
I'm posting this job ad on behalf of Richard Brooksby at Ravenbrook. They do
cool stuff, and I thought some of you might be interested.

Nathan,
I'm interested in research relating to memory management in
Haskell. I'm at the point where I don't know enough to have very
specific questions, but I'm especially interested in garbage collection
in Haskell, and any available statistics (such as, how long does a thunk

Thanks, yes, that's exactly what I had in mind.
Is anything like this is done in GHC?

Not at the moment, no.
Bear in mind that with generational GC,
Hi,
staying in the realm of the explicit and pragmatic, various libraries
in Haskell do provide safeexplicit region/alloca/stack allocation
actions, e.g.,
Foreign.Marshal.Alloc.allocaBytes :: Int - (Ptr a - IO b) - IO b
with the promise that the pointer doesn't escape here (you could
