Comment 1 Anton Kochkov 2020-03-16 11:00:20 UTC
Agda 2.6.1 was released - https://github.com/agda/agda/releases/tag/v2.6.1

Full changelog is here: https://github.com/agda/agda/blob/release-2.6.1/CHANGELOG.md

Installation and infrastructure
- Added support for GHC 8.8.2
- Removed support for GHC 7.10.3.
- Interface files are now written in directory _build/VERSION/agda/ at the project root (the closest enclosing directory where an .agda-lib file is present). If there is no project root then the interface file is written alongside the module it corresponds to. The flag --local-interfaces forces Agda to revert back to storing interface files alongside module files no matter what.
- Agda now uses the default RTS options -M3.5G -I0. If you run Agda on a 32-bit system or a system with less than 8GB of RAM, it is recommended to set the RTS options explicitly to a lower value by running agda with option +RTS -M1.2G -RTS (for example) or by setting the GHCRTS enviroment variable. See the GHC User's Guide for more information.
- If Agda is compiled using GHC 8.4 or later, then one can expect to see substantially lower memory consumption
