ghc-mod consumes too much memory #210

Closed welf closed 6 years ago

welf commented 7 years ago

ghc-mod consumes too much memory (macOS Sierra 10.12.4) when working with *.hs files of decent size (only 102 lines). I need regulary free RAM or relaunch Atom.

Known issue with GHC 8.0.1 at least. Can't do much on my end. See https://github.com/DanielG/ghc-mod/issues/834

It's a problem with GHC 8.0.2 too because I use it.

Somewhat solved in recent versions that try to restart ghc-mod if it eats too much RAM (configurable). Obviously a band-aid, but that's all I can do here.
