Abstract

We present experimental results demonstrating the performance improvement obtained in our distributed Haskell implementation when we replaced scheduling according to a micromanagement paradigm with contention-driven scheduling with automatic load balancing. This performance enhancement has important implications in the area of automatic run-time optimization.
