Program runs out of memory using GHC 7.6.3

[Mikolaj Konarski]

tt may be that GHC 7.8 optimizes the program better.
Compile with -O0 and see if it runs out of memory, too.
If so, you can just optimize the program by hand.
I'd suggest making a heap profilie with -O0 or in GHC 7.6
and finding out where the memory goes.

Of course, it's possible you've hit a compiler bug,
but it makes sense not to start with that assumption.

Have fun,
Mikolaj
