Description of what happened:
I gave my program really large numbers.
It contains the following line:
rr = (of40)*(r^3041)
where of40 is an integer which has about 2 515 968
(that is two million+) decimal digits (explicitly
written out and initialized in the .hs file).
In addition, of40 is multiplied by (r to the power or 3041),
where r is a 250-digit number so (r to the power or 3041)
has about 760 250 (seven hundred sixty thousand+) decimal digits.
This makes the product
rr = (of40)*(r^3041)
to have more than 3 000 000 (three million+) decimal digits.
I tried to compile it three times, twice unsuccessful
(insufficient amount of memory during compilation),
and the third time successful, after 12 hours work by
the compiler, and me increasing the paging file to
initial size 49152 Mb, max size 196608 Mb.
(At the end of compilation the Paging file reported as:
Recommended 24574 Mb, Currently allocated: 163765 Mb.)
I run a Hewlett-Packard HPE 500y, upgraded to 16 Gb RAM,
Windows 7, AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1045T Processor 2.70 GHz (6 core).
The compiler produced a big exe file:
09/27/2014 09:38 PM 20,602,960 void.exe
When I tried to run the exe file I got the error messages
as already enclosed at the beginning of this description.
Most of the time during compilation the computer used
all of the available memory.
Note that I gave the options -rtsopts to the compiler,
and the option +RTS -K400M -RTS when I tried
to execute the compiled program (I believe this is
some kind of a request for more memory), and one more
attempt with +RTS -K40000M -RTS, both versions generated
the error messages shown above.
P.S. Thanks to Richard Eisenberg and Herbert Valerio Riedel
for replying to my email, after BotScout kept me from
submitting my report. Apparently I passed the
evaluation-captcha (on my second attempt) but
nevertheless BotScout insisted I was spam.
