- ch0wn 14y agoDoes GHC use the LLVM backend by default or do you have to manually enable that?
- ionfish 14y agoNo, the default backend is the native code generator. You need to use the -fllvm flag to enable the LLVM backend. http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.6.1/html/users_guide/code-generators.html http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/7.6.1/html/users_guide/code-... "[The LLVM backend] is an alternative backend that uses the LLVM compiler to produce executable code. It generally produces code as with performance as good as the native code generator but for some cases can produce much faster code. This is especially true for numeric, array heavy code using packages like vector. The penalty is a significant increase in compilation times."
