Comment (by bgamari):

 In general it is expected that some modules will occasionally need to have
 the tick limit bumped in order to compile. Afterall, the simplifier tick
 mechanism is merely a heuristic.

 In your case it sounds like this is a rather small and simple program,
 which makes the failure a bit more surprising. However, it's hard to tell
 without seeing actual code. It would be quite helpful if you could try to
 reduce the problem down to a something that you can share.
