Mind if I ask what was going on there? I can see things potentially taking that long if you do things in a [Word16] or something like that, and this /is/ one of the cases where float is better than double... That, and this is probably one of those "squash laziness" situations. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
