I think the compiler has to generate assembly code for all basic types. I can also imagine that types like a Word128 or Word256 are not natively supported in most common architectures. But I am no expert in this area. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
