2024-11-17 18:23:12 +0100 <jonkri> Hi! I'm looking into using GHC.Iface.Load to access the API of packages programmatically. Is there a straightforward way of getting a GHC.Driver.Session.Settings record? Thanks!

2024-11-17 18:01:14 +0100 <briandaed> looks like new aphex twin track

2024-11-17 17:57:43 +0100 <shapr> ooh, I want to run the benchmark on my laptop
2024-11-17 17:56:49 +0100 <briandaed> again agree, some ancient results https://qbaylogic.github.io/benchmark-compilation/ which I believe still make sense
2024-11-17 17:54:36 +0100 <Hecate> erm, s/cores/threads/
2024-11-17 17:54:25 +0100 <Hecate> briandaed: there's a couple of rules indeed. One of them being: Plan to use 1GB of RAM for each thread of compilation. If you have more cores than gigabytes of RAM, you *must* restrict the amount of cores used
2024-11-17 17:53:50 +0100 <briandaed> wouldn't bet on memory latency, rather on being computing intensive (cpu-bound)
2024-11-17 17:51:17 +0100 <shapr> Is that for lower memory latency?
2024-11-17 17:50:46 +0100 <briandaed> I agree, and looks high frequency is more important than core count
2024-11-17 17:50:16 +0100 <Hecate> or Firefox
2024-11-17 17:50:13 +0100 <Hecate> big projects like GHC and LLVM
2024-11-17 17:50:09 +0100 <Hecate> laptops are not good compilation machines for big projects anyway, briandaed. They often have not-so-good air flow, which is quite critical
2024-11-17 17:49:29 +0100 <briandaed> nice, I gave up after 0.5h and some errors, and looks it's time for change
2024-11-17 17:48:18 +0100 <Hecate> built in 11m46s on my Fedora box with a Ryzen 5 7600X (12 threads) @ 5.453GHz

2024-11-17 17:40:28 +0100 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> It's unclear why I only hit it in 9.6 though
2024-11-17 17:40:26 +0100 <Hecate> with GHC 9.10.1 as the boot GHC
2024-11-17 17:40:17 +0100 <Hecate> briandaed:

2024-11-17 17:37:43 +0100 <briandaed> oops
2024-11-17 17:37:38 +0100 <haskellbridge> <maerwald> briandaed: 9.6.6 is broken
2024-11-17 17:36:35 +0100 <briandaed> problems... only until recently something with messed flags, with 9.2.7 installed via ghcup, today switched to 9.6.6 and so far so good
2024-11-17 17:35:55 +0100 <briandaed> Hecate please also share commands you issue to build it, I followed something found on ghc-devs not sure if it's optimal what I've found
2024-11-17 17:34:32 +0100 <Hecate> briandaed: drop me a line at hecate@haskell.foundation if you ever find problems on FreeBSD, I try to help on this front
2024-11-17 17:33:07 +0100 <briandaed> hello :D
2024-11-17 17:32:49 +0100 <Hecate> briandaed: also hello fellow FreeBSD user! :D
2024-11-17 17:32:39 +0100 <Hecate> I can test on my FreeBSD box
2024-11-17 17:32:32 +0100 <Hecate> I doubt it
2024-11-17 17:31:59 +0100 <briandaed> yeah... looks it's a time to change laptop, 28 minutes here, not sure if compiling on FreeBSD make it slower...
