Float coercions out of lets
Note [Float coercions]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When we find the binding
x = e `cast` co
we'd like to transform it to
x' = e
x = x `cast` co -- A trivial binding
There's a chance that e will be a constructor application or function, or something
like that, so moving the coerion to the usage site may well cancel the coersions
and lead to further optimisation. Example:
data family T a :: *
data instance T Int = T Int
foo :: Int -> Int -> Int
foo m n = ...
where
x = T m
go 0 = 0
go n = case x of { T m -> go (n-m) }
-- This case should optimise
