Hello,
I'm trying some haskell scripting. I'm writing a script to print some
information
from a zip archive. The zip-archive library does look nice but the
performance of zip-archive/lazy bytestring
doesn't seem to scale.
Executing :
eRelativePath $ head $ zEntries archive
on an archive of around 12 MB with around 20 files yields
Stack space overflow: current size 8388608 bytes.
The script in question can be found at :
http://github.com/plaeremans/HaskellSnipplets/blob/master/ZipList.hs
I'm using the latest version of haskell platform. Are these libaries
not production ready,
or am I doing something terribly wrong ?
I downloaded your program and compiled it (GHC 6.12.1, zip-archive
0.1.1.6, bytestring 0.9.1.5). I ran it on the JVM src.zip (20MB, ~8000
files) and it sat there for a minute (67s), taking 2.2% memory according
to top, then completed successfully. Same behaviour with -O2. Which
compares very badly in time to the instant return when I ran unzip -l on
the same file, but I didn't see any memory problems. Presumably your
archive is valid and works with unzip and other tools?
Thanks,
Neil.
