The extra recompilation is annoying for HLint, true, since you probably don't care about your annotations being visible from other modules, whereas LiquidHaskell does. But I'm surprised by the compilation performance penalty. I would have expected ANN to be fairly cheap. That seems worthy of a bug report, regardless of the current discussion about unknown pragmas. _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
