Abstract
Abstract. Haskell is a functional language, with features such as higher order functions and lazy evaluation, which allow succinct programs. These high-level features are difficult for fast execution, but GHC is a mature and widely used optimising compiler. This paper presents a wholeprogram approach to optimisation, which produces speed improvements of between 10 % and 60 % when used with GHC, on eight benchmarks. 1
