This is a pretty major issue, especially for laptop systems. I confirm it as well. Oh I just wanted to add. Bumping to 7.4.2 does *not* fix this. The tracker linked above confirms this as well. Does ghc-7.6.3 work better for you on this workload? Yeah, looks ok for me now. I think I remember seeing patches committed for 7.6 that fix the issue.

I'll close this one as WONTFIX then as we won't likely backport such low-leven RTS bits to ghc-7.4. |
