There is an IA64 port somewhere, and I suspect other 64-bit

I wonder if such an effort is worthwhile. If all pointers are suddenly
twice the size then the footprint of a program roughly doubles.

It would be interesting if Haskell programs could run in the lower 4 GB
alex:
Is there a maximum memory GHC can use/reach?
Specifically, can GHC address more than 4gb of
memory?

If you look in ghc/rts/MBlock.h
Dell's poweredge server with the max 12gb RAM costs $15k.
Moore's law says that
1. you only need an extra bit/year.
2. processing that extra bit will cost 50% less next year
Though perhaps processing time is not linear with
the number of bits for historical/architectural
reasons?
