</div></div>It is more that the RTS is generated as a part of the normal code<br>
generation process, this is done by implementing as much as possible in<br>
haskell itself, jhc has a very rich set of unboxed primitives, making it<br>
as expressible as c-- for the most part, for the bits of C I do need, I<br>
try to make them conditionally compilable, so parts that arn't used will<br>
not be included. all in all, the overhead is ~= 1k or so. A side effect<br>
is that jhc is very lightly coupled to any particular RTS, so<br>
experimenting with alternate ones is pretty straigtforward.<br>
