<div dir="ltr">Hello,<div><br></div><div>I have got around the issue of the compilation possibly not terminating by simply copying the definition of "fca" and "fca'" into the module with the holes.

As far as I can see that expression exactly matches the type of that hole and I don't understand why it is not just accepted immediately.

With the hole filled in the compilation allocates and deallocates memory in (2-3 minute) cycles which I have not seen before when running Agda. I have not measured memory usage I just watched the graph of memory usage in my system monitor while it was running.</div><div><br></div><div>"<span style="color:rgb(36,41,46);font-family:SFMono-Regular,Consolas,"Liberation Mono",Menlo,Courier,monospace;font-size:12px;white-space:pre-wrap">fca</span>" or "<span style="color:rgb(36,41,46);font-family:SFMono-Regular,Consolas,"Liberation Mono",Menlo,Courier,monospace;font-size:12px;white-space:pre-wrap">functorCompositionAssociator</span>" is imported from</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://github.com/jbracker/polymonad-proofs/blob/master/src/Theory/Natural/Transformation/Examples/FunctorCompositionAssociator.agda" target="_blank">https://github.com/jbracker/po<wbr>lymonad-proofs/blob/master/src<wbr>/Theory/Natural/Transformation<wbr>/Examples/FunctorCompositionAs<wbr>sociator.agda</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>This module on its own again compiles within a reasonable amount of time (in emacs and while calling agda directly):</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-family:monospace"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">agda -isrc -v 0 +RTS -K40m -RTS src/Theory/Natural/Transformat<wbr>ion/Examples/FunctorCompositio<wbr>nAssociator.agda</span><br></span></div><div><br></div><div>I first encountered this problem using emacs and I have verified that it is actually an Agda and not an emacs issue by calling Agda on the respective files directly before and after I replaced the hole with the expression.</div><div><br></div><div>I have tested this using Agda 2.5.2 built from the Hackage sources on two different 64-bit Linux machines (Kubuntu 16.04 & 14.04).
